My Sweet Potato 3: Free Preemie Hippo Hat

I am so excited to announce another Free Pattern! This pattern was designed for those newborns that have been brought to our world sooner than planned and are in NICU's all over the world.

Two years ago I started My Sweet Potato 3 and have been so blessed to meet many wonderful people. One lovely lady that has really touched me and so many others, is Betsy from The Dainty Daisy. You must check out her blog, and follow her on facebook. Betsy started an organization called, Rozie's Cozies, that donates handmade hats to NICU's. You can read more details here.

After seeing her generosity, I was motivated to work on some hats for my local NICU and was able to donate a handful of them which was very rewarding. So, when Betsy asked for some designers to come together and provide free patterns for a Rosie's Cozies "Zoo Collection" I jumped at the chance. I wanted to do something new, something fun, and something different. I decided to make a fun Hippo Hat. This pattern is free and all I ask is that you make at least 1 hat and donate it to your local NICU in honor of Rosies Cozies. Then go check out the rest of the Zoo Collection too!
