Pictures of Hats

So here are the pictures as promised. The first one is my first knit for my baby girl who will be debuting in early summer. This was actually the pattern on the skein of yarn and as you can see it's adorable. It will be perfect for summer, especially since it's baby weight yarn so it's nice and light. I may end up knitting one without the eyelets for summer use so she won't have a spotted head and perhaps a few more in various sizes because they are quick and super cute.

This next one was one I knit in a day using a small amount of leftover yarn. Turns out I loved the ruffle so much, and it's so easy to do, that I just knit a basic hat and added a ruffle. No pattern needed. I didn't write it down and am not sure how I did it but the decreases turned out in such a way that the hat looks like a flower. It even ends in a slight point. I knit this initially for a fellow Mommy to match the shrug I had knit but it will depend on when I see her next and if the hat will still for her little girl. If it's a bit before I see her it will be used for my baby girl. Good thing is it won't go to waste!

This is a view looking down from above so you can see the decreases. Again, really wish I would have wrote this down because it looks so much like a flower!

The only other news is I finished knitting the birthday present last night and I sat down yesterday and "designed" the quilts I need to make. Nothing fancy, basically just serves as a blueprint so I know how to sew it together and how many squares of what color and size I need to cut.

I also have begun a quest searching for pink and brown fabrics to see if I can find one I absolutely LOVE. If so then I may just make the crib set myself, or at least the comforter and curtains. A plain crib bumper is easy enough to find.
