Wow--you guys are all about winning, aren't you? I wish I could send
all of you a free book but that's not in the budget. So instead let's
all give a big round of applause to the winner
Jannoknits! Tippecanoe has made his pronouncement and no one can defy him. Just look at him, he can't be swayed!
Since you're here you might as well look at what is basically the cutest
baby hat I have every made. I made it for a good friend's new baby boy
and feel that I have discovered my new go-to baby pattern, which is to
say that if you're preggo, I'm making this for you.
The Specs
Pattern:
Alfalfa Baby Hat by Kate Gagnon
Yarn: Cascade 220 in 'Turquoise Heather', .45 of a skein
Needles: size 4
Mods: I did this on smaller than recommended needles in order to get a size fit for a newborn.
There is something, dare I say, sculptural about this hat? It's just such a perfect shape. So easy and FAST....I'm pretty sure I was doped up on Alka-Seltzer Plus Cold Remedy while making this and it took less than 4 hours, so that should give you an indication of how non-complicated the pattern is.
Once again Cascade 220 proves to be a workhorse yarn. OMG--is there anything this yarn CAN'T do? I've knit it on everything from a size 4-size 8 and have always been thrilled with the results. And the colors--seriously. Above you see depicted the famous Cascade 200 wall at Natural Stitches. Just tell me that it doesn't make you weak at the knees!

Ooh, love the hat, esp. the color! Cascade 220 is one of my go-to yarns for a reason.
Tippeecanoe just looks petrified that you are going to make him model that (very cute) hat.
Hey, I know that wall!
The hat is adorable. I have to do some baby knitting soon, so it's going on the list of possible patterns.
Your projects are always an inspiration!
Please blog more! Love the hat. Do you also have a cat named Tyler too?
Great hat, so adorable, such a lovely color. I made one of these once and it was a delight to work on. Yours is so pretty.
Another rocked-out knit! Gotta get me some Alka-Seltzer...
When 20 enemies land in your base you have lost the battle and have failed has a supreme commander of your base' defense. As said you have to place different types of towers in the playing field to make sure they don't reach your base.
