Infant Hat in Simple Cables

A Free Crochet Pattern


I am starting the process of adding all of the patterns that I have designed for http://crochetvolution.com/ to my blog. They will still always be there at that site and the link on Ravelry will still always take you there, but I wanted to have my patterns all in one spot. At least with the ones that I am allowed to do that with.

I thought I would start with the first one and work my way down. Interestingly my very first pattern is still one of my most popular patterns. I guess it is a good one. You may find the wording a little different from the original pattern, but I hope it provides more clarity.

Where can I get this free crochet pattern?

This is available for a free pattern download through my Ravelry Store.
