Easter Baby Hat & Booties FREE Crochet Patterns for a Newborn

An easy crochet pattern for an Easter hat for a newborn, the mum wanted an Easter theme. So I crocheted this Easter hat following a basic beanie pattern for a baby. 

 Finishing the hat off with the brick stitch around the bottom to resemble a cracked egg. The added crochet ruffle can be folded up or down to suit. 

The cute Easter bonnet has proved to be a really popular design, but since I originally made it I've upgraded the pattern a little to add in a further few rounds of ribbing AND a crochet baby diaper cover FREE PATTERN 

Super-Cute and Easy Baby Hat, booties, and diaper cover FREE crochet patterns 

The baby hat is an easy basic baby beanie hat pattern that is ideal for a new baby since it is made in the half-double crochet stitch and is nice and stretchy. 

If making this little set for a gift, especially at Easter time I like to crochet one of my Crochet Ducks

The baby Booties are super quick and easy to crochet too, with the brick stitch edging making it look like a cracked egg.
