Aviator Hat for Baby FREE Crochet Pattern

Aviator Hat for Baby

Aviator Hat BabyThe Aviator hat is stylish and fun. Oh, and put it on a baby and it’s just stinkin’ cute! The aviator hat is sometimes referred to as a “bomber hat” or “flying hat”. In the crochet world we have also seen it called “hat with ear flaps”, which is a pretty accurate description.

There are several elements that make the aviator hat distinctive. The original flying hat was made of a leather exterior and wool interior – a flap of the cap was tacked just above the forehead. Long ear flaps held radios at the ears. The  hat was often paired with flying goggles and a scarf. We’ve simulated all of these elements with yarn!
