I’ve got a small FO and a short post today. I still had a full ball and a bit of the yarn left from the baby cardi, so I wanted to make a hat and some booties to go with it. So far, I’ve only had time to complete the hat.
But…

Damn it’s cute!!!! The pattern is Round Head In a Square Hat. It’s a Ravelry freebie. It’s supposed to have ribbing for the band, but I did garter to match the cardigan. And I added the pompoms, because it was just screaming out for pompoms.
Now I’ve got to knit some booties and get this off in the mail. Due date is still two weeks away, but babies come when babies come, and it could be any day now!
Adorable! The pom poms are perfect.

Oh wow! I love this Val. What a great hat – love the yarn (of course) and the Pom-Poms are perfection!! The booties that you make may need tiny pom-poms on them too! LOL

That is just the cutest hat! I think anything made from that yarn would be pretty.

Those pom-poms are the perfect finishing touch Val. The baby is going to be the best dressed baby in town! I wouldn’t worry about being late. I it’s like our new granddaughter, she was a week late exactly! Of course each baby has it’s own ideas.
Blessings,
