Crochet Teddy Bear Hat – Free Pattern – Baby Shower Gift Idea

Hello!

I am on a Baby Shower Gifts kick recently and have had this teddy bear hat pattern saved from last January and thought it was a good time to share. You can adjust the sizing of the hat by having more or less increase rounds to get the size you would like to make. The Crochet Crowd has a nice guide to creating the perfect hat size here. This is also a nice pattern for beginner.

Let’s get started!
