Sweet Baby C is the model...
The hat is made with a lovely organic cotton hand-dyed yarn my mother brought me. Lost the tag with the name and colorway though...sorry!
My friend liked it so much, she asked for another one for next weekend. She's a doula, so she goes to a lot of baby showers.
I love sending gnome hats off into the world...
Now that I'm back on the knitting bandwagon...what should I make with this beautiful hand-spun yarn my Mom made?
That gnome hat is beautiful. And Baby C is simply stunning! And I *love* fun yarn :-) How about a "Baby Surprise Jacket" (I think that's what its called), if you have enough?
ReplyDeleteadorable! the gnome hat and baby c. ;) don't know what you should knit but i think it is so neat that your mom made you yarn!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!! That hat is awesome! I want one in my size!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just came home with some lovely yarn from a big sale nearby...I don't know what to start with, (but, I'm thinking Christmas hats for all this year)!!

Is there a pattern kicking around for that hat? It is super adorable and I have a ton of yarn in my stash. I haven't actually knit anything for this baby (although I did buy and renovate a house so, you know, I'm cutting myself some slack) and this would be so perfect.
ReplyDeleteI was just going to ask the same thing...pattern please! I went to your friends blog...the knitted garden...and still couldn't find it there! Can you give us the link?
ReplyDeleteI NEED to make gnome hats!!!!!!!

Hmmm...let me get permission from my friend who wrote the pattern and I'll share it...hold on...be back in a few...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I just began knitting again after, oh, maybe eighteen years of not doing it. I was eleven or twelve since my grandma first taught me. I only wish I had kept it up.
ReplyDeleteI think my first project will be something really simple, a scarf for Luna for those breezy autumn months.
