Notes

This little project took two evenings to make and each stitch made me smile. The yarn, Home Worsted Weight, is so lovely and soft with a great plumpy, cottony feel while knitting and I’m certain will be next-to-skin soft as a kitten. The pattern is fun to make and completely adorable. It’s perfect for scraps but I’ve always wanted to try this particular yarn and they had little kits on sale (as of this posting, they are still on sale). The kit has enough yarn to make two hats, probably three depending on the size you make and if you decide to add any of your stash. I added some orange and white from my stash to add some punch and contrast. This is going to be my new go-to baby hat. It’s a snap to make and the only fiddley part is the very end with few stitches on 4 needles to get the point, but then you soon get to the end and make the easy and funny i cord tip. A very fun knit!
