Sizing beanie hats for preemies and newborns using different yarns from #10 cotton to bulky.

The main reason to make preemies hats is that most body heat is lost through the head. Preemies are kept at optimum temperatures. Yet, often babies get too hot and sweat (heat stress), which looses valuable body fluids and that is why a hat with little vent holes is most appropriate.
This pattern meets preemies and newborn's need. It has enough warmth from the yarn to keep the head warm, yet it "vents” through the little holes, so the baby doesn't overheat.

On 11 pages full of choices and information, so you can use any variety of leftover yarn for making these hats. Of course, you can use the information, emblems and ideas for many other projects also.

I give you the general pattern size for 3 ply sports weigh or baby yarn, which is most commonly used for baby hats. But there is no reason, why you should not use 4 ply or even bulky yarn you have on hand (pictured in the center of the 5 hat collection). In this pattern I explain simple and practical ways how to size with every yarn making hats for every size head.

This is a wonderful project for beginners to practice their basic stitches and do something worthwhile with their time and talent helping at a crucial time of life. You could have a real worthwhile ministry using your talent AND those many yarn ends that accumulate with making projects. Just wait and see how satisfying this would be for your OWN life as you help others!

If you can crochet chains, single and double crochet stitches
YOU too can make this just as you see in the picture.
Start now using all your yarn scraps. It's a perfect project for those!
