I got back my enthusiasm for the red hat. Here's the finished product. The pattern is called the Stella Pixie Hat, so no prizes for guessing who gets it - though Pearl took it for a trial run to the park yesterday, with great success. The yarn is Colinette Jitterbug, a sock yarn with very subtle colour changes. I think there's enough left over to knit another one, and I'd like to try and adapt the pattern for a thicker yarn. It makes for a mighty cute result, so I might have to whip up a few for new baby gifts.
I actually started another Stella Pixie Hat while I was pregnant and put it aside somewhere unfinished. I'll have to dig it out and try for some matchy-matchy twin photos.
In the meantime, do we have to have a little talk about how gorgeous this kid is? I'm allowed to say that, right?
Well, if you're not going to say it, I am: gorgeous kid! The hat is blooming lovely too...

ReplyDeleteOh, and pleased to see the Stella hyperlink!!!
ReplyDeleteAww, I've seen the had knit up before but didn't like it as much - here it just looks too cute! (might have something to do with the beautiful baby wearing it!) :)
