Child's Marsala Knit Hat

Childs Marsala Knit Hat

Your child deserves better than an overpriced, flimsy department store hat. Knit him or her a Child's Marsala Knit Hat instead for the perfect mixture of stylishness and comfort. The brim in this knit hat pattern rolls up in a way you don't see in many free knitting patterns for hats, so not only will your little tyke be cozy, they'll be unique.
