Kayleigh Preemie Hat
This hat was made for my friend's preemie baby, born 26 weeks early at only 1 pound. I wanted to use up my leftovers from her baby blankie and whipped up this little crochet hat. Then I decided that I would post it on Ravelry for sale as a fund raiser for the family. Any proceeds (aka what's left after website processing fees) will be donated to the family to help fund their medical bills for Kayleigh.Knitmore Girls' Vanilla Knee Socks (alterations)
