  I have a total soft spot for babies in animal hats. Seriously, is there anything cuter??? I created this baby girl Bunny Ear Hat knitting pattern for a friend’s daughter who is celebrating her 1st Easter this year.
This hat is a really easy and fast knit. Every row is knit in the round. The ears and bow are knit separately and then stitched on. I hope you guys like the pattern. I can’t wait to see my friend’s daughter in this hat!
