Mesh Newborn Hat Crochet Pattern

Mesh Newborn Hat Crochet Pattern

When making this Mesh Newborn Hat all I could think about was the ocean. I’m not exactly sure why. Maybe it was because the breeze could easily go through the hat, maybe because of how lightweight the hat is. Anyways, each time I see this hat I still see the ocean. What do y’all see when y’all see this hat?

Grab y’all’s super fine weight yarn and E-4 (3.50 mm) crochet hook, and use the video tutorial towards the bottom for any extra help. I hope y’all show me what you come up with!
