Both my girls instantly fell in love with this curious little mouse Isn’t it cute how it looks out from behind the wall? This reversible hat can be knitted in all baby and children sizes.

This hat is knitted in the Double Knitting Technique. Thus, it is extra soft and warm, and it looks good on both sides.
