I first caught sight of this hat when SequinK was making it. (I'm still convinced she'll have to make one for her baby, too.) Then, I noticed Mommio has plans to make it. I ran into it at And She Knits, Too. And I think I bumped it a few other times because I clearly remember going out to download the pattern multiple times without realizing I'd already done so. Each time, I thought it was a great hat but maybe a bit too mature for the boys (right now).
But, now I'm rethinking that. I was hasty.
After seeing Rock Chick's version at Purl Jam, I don't know that I can resist making one for myself and then for the boys, too, no doubt. I can totally envision this in black and baby pink (for me, not the boys). Yep, you heard me. Black and baby pink!
OOh, I would wear a black and pink version! I'm doing the traditional black and white for my boy, we'll see how this test version goes!
It's a fun knit, for sure. Make it for YOU -- yay!!
