Spring is creeping in here in Colorado. Time to get outdoors as much as possible before the heat drives us back inside. We get so much sunshine in this state that a sunhat is a mandatory accessory for any small child. With knit hats it’s hard to find a middle ground between a tight enough gauge to not be too floppy and a loose enough gauge to not be too hot. The double layer edging of this hat makes the brim stiff enough to not fall in the wearer’s eyes while the hat’s eyelets allow for ventilation. With a variety of sizes to choose from it’s easy to find a perfect fit for any small one, from birth to age three.
