This darling free Dixie pixie hat knitting pattern from Sandra Magalhães is just perfect for cozy autumn days. Sized to fit both boys and girls, this charming bonnet features a gentle point at the back that gives it that classic, whimsical pixie look.
Knitted completely flat using DK weight yarn, the hat starts at the front ribbed edge and works back in smooth stocking stitch with soft shaping towards the peak. Once folded and seamed up the back, you pick up stitches along the bottom edge to add a neat garter stitch trim with two chin straps to keep it comfortably in place. The step-by-step instructions include clear photo guides and color-coded sizing covering 7 sizes from 0-3 months all the way up to 6-10 years. It is a fantastic project for using up leftover yarn scraps from past sweater projects. Cast on this sweet, quick DIY pixie bonnet for an adorable seasonal accessory or baby gift!
