Fair Isle Sweet Strawberry Hat Knitting Pattern

Knit an adorable strawberry hat for you newborn, baby or toddler with this easy knitting pattern!

Nothing says spring and summer to me that sweet, juicy, red strawberries! I won’t hesitate to say that they are my favorite fruit. I eat sooo many from April through July. And don’t even get me started on strawberry shortcake! And of course, as a child of the 80’s I was also a big fan of Strawberry Shortcake the character.  How adorable is this bright red hat with cute tiny white polka dots and little green leaves on top? I think it’s one of my faves! And this is one that would be equally adorable on little babies and bigger toddlers. Although imagine  strawberry hat as a gift for a spring baby shower! There would be lots of awwwwwws! This is probably the easiest fair isle knitting pattern that I have on my site and it’s a great one if you’re just learning or even trying it for the first time. I promise, it’s not hard! Just be sure to float the color you’re not currently using LOOSELY on the back and you’ll be fine!
