This preemie beanie is "as cute as (pumpkin) pie"!
Happy Fall, everyone! A holiday season isn't a holiday season without a slice of pumpkin pie- which inspired this preemie beanie design.
It's a simple pattern using one of my old favorites, Joann's Big Twist Value. These little beanies can work up in as little as a half hour!
I hope this pattern inspires you to crochet some Pumpkin Pie Preemie Beanies for a NICU near you this holiday season. Tag me in your photos on Instagram when you do- I'd love to see your finished products! Happy crocheting!
