Thank you for posting this tutorial…..I have been donating incubator covers to our local NICU…..however this is a nice change….especially watching TV! thank you!
Thanks so much for this pattern and easy to follow tutorial. I just finished my very first preemie hat and had so much fun doing it. It took a little under 20 minutes. I will be giving this to a friend that just had a Fabulous Angel Baby. God Bless you and your ministry.
Thank you so much! I was looking for a tutorial video and a written pattern so I could understand the written pattern 😉 I am a parent of a NICU graduate and have learned to crochet specifically to make preemie hats to donate. I want to return the kind gift we received. I know first hand how much these hats can mean. Thanks!!
I too am a mom of twin NICU graduates. They weighed 3lbs each and were born 9 weeks early. I want to return the kindness we got when my children were there. BTW they are perfectly healthy freshman in college this year. Thank you for posting this!
Thank you for the preemie hat tutorial. I am thrilled with your method of joining at the end of the row. The seam looks great. I have already made 10 hats this past week.
your video was great. the preemie hat was so easy. Loved the joining at the end of row.

Thanks for the pattern love it. My friend just lost a grand baby would like to have something special for her and her daughter- in-law. Do you have other things as well? Thought I would do angel wings to sew onto hat.

Thank you SO MUCH from Australia. It seems that no one much is volunteering to make these tiny beanies – and it horrifies me that they are having to bandage these beautiful little angels heads to keep them warm! I have been doing larger beanies for kids with cancer – but had no pattern for littlies. This is so simple – and I much prefer the join! Thanks again
Thank you very much for your pattern. It was easy to follow and quick to complete. I have crocheted a few baby hats and had little luck with keeping the seam straight. Bless you and your kind and good work with your ministry. 😊
muchas gracias por compartir estos gorritos yo los dono a neonatologia
Thank for the pattern and the tutorial. Made one for my new grandson. He wasn’t a preemie but was only 5 lbs .13 ounces. Daughter loved it for him thanks again .
