The Poor Child and His Hat
I finished Sputnik's (The Child Formerly Known As LittleD) hat ...
it's a cute hat.
It's ... um ... pretty roomy. Gives him room to grow a giant crop of poofy hair, I guess.
You might recall this is the second hat I've attempted for him. The first was a bit small. It's like living the goldilocks story. The 3rd hat would be just right. Except I'll probably stop here and move on because the child, bless his sweet little heart, loves the roomy hat with extra hair-growth room.
I frogged the first point twice before being happy with the points. Why I didn't frog at the start, when I knew the hat would be extra roomy, is beyond me. I guess I had a frogaversion. But maybe next time I'll be bold enough to frog early. We'll see.
Isn't he just the cutest thing?
Even when he's also a little blurry?

My mom can knit . . . and I can show her your site, and . . . Christmas is coming . . . but it wouldn't quite be a Kim creation then, would it? I'll just pray about it, does the Lord want me to have such a jubilant hat, and if so, He'll provide it!
Hope you're having a lovely fall, in Michigan. The leaves are just beginning to turn here in the southern New England.

He is sooo cute! What adorable eyes! The hat is cool too I love the points. I just tried to "loom knit" a hat for the Imp. (You are my inspiration to at least try these crafty-type things!) "Kim said it wasn't too hard, she taught herself!" Lead on!
