Nifty Knitting



Just had to share this adorable little knit hat Serena received as a gift this week from my aunt. Looks very cute when she's snuggled in with her big brother. If only I had the patience to knit - it's the one craft I'm just not ready to tackle. My aunt sews, quilts, knits, felts and does jewelry. Now that's crafty!! I love the colors in this cap and its nice & stretchy to fit for a long time. Baby is growing fast - 5 weeks old today and starting to outgrow some clothes (sniff, sniff). On the plus side, it's a legit excuse to make more stuff, so it's not all bad..hehe;)

  1. you could always try one of these to build up your knitting patience http://nipitinthebud.wordpress.com/2009/09/07/happy-hat-making-for-the-big-knit/
    honestly they only take 30 minutes and while most people don't need hats for their bottles I've found they're a perfect size for egg cosy's.

  2. ps. or use really big needles and yarn. I made a jumper last year which was just 42 stitches - took more time to sew up than it did to knit it!
