Quilts

We have knitted for the Norfolk and Norwich Premature Baby Unit for a long time and recently had a request for very, very tiny hats (egg cup size). They now save such tiny babies it is hard to get things small enough for them. We have a lovely pattern of a tiny baby hat with a flap - just see our patterns section.
