The 2nd hat is knitted in the round; my first knitted hat! It is for size 3-6 months...not truly sure...being true to my nature I made it up as I went along. It may fit; it may not. Guessing is half the fun!

Baby hats
Made these just for fun a few weeks ago. The top one is a crocheted newborn hat; yarn was doubled for a bulky effect. It is double crocheted using only the back loop to get the edging.

Beards!
What kid doesn't look adorable in a beard!? Making this for a friend so her son can wear it and not have his cheeks cold on the playground. The cutie-pie modeling it is all mine though:-)

Shell stitch crochet hat
My daughter asked me for a new hat a few weeks ago. Ask and you shall receive! Found a cute pattern and worked it up quickly. Made the flower up as I went along and added a button for extra appeal.
She was delighted.

The pattern came from this site. It is by FAR, my most favorte little girl hat pattern. It is so easy to make and the hats are just adorable!
Reversible apron
I have had the fabric to make this apron for awhile now. I had even found a super cute online pattern. But when I went to make this a few weeks ago, I couldn't find the pattern, and I learned my sewing machine was broken.
I borrowed a friend's machine and yesterday quickly capitalized on my crew playing nicely and decided to get to work. So I decided to make it up as I went along. The apron body was made tracing a simple apron I already had, 2 pieces of fabric with right sides facing. I cut the fabric in 2 pieces and then flipped the top half over. Sewed the bottom 2 pieces together leaving a small opening at the top do it could be turned right side out. Repeated for the top half. Then ironed and pressed.

Christmas gifts complete!
No new pictures lately because I've been busy making Christmas gifts for my mom and mother-in-law. They are finally complete and I'm so excited to share my made-with-love gifts for my family this year. But --- pics will not be posted until after the Holidays so secrets aren't revealed :)
I've also made a couple of newborn hats for some new little girl babies some new friends have had recently. So cute! And so quick to make. Pics will follow soon.
