First project dedicated specifically to my second sweet SON, currently known as “Thumper” :)

Finished this on my lunch break at work, it’s so cute!

CO 66 sts
Gauge: 20 sts/4 inches or 5 sts/inch

Final product is 13” around, should fit 15” head according to the pattern (2” negative ease). This corresponds to fitting babe anywhere between 3 and 6 months, perfect, since he is due in October.

Cast off with a purlwise crochet bind-off, sort of following these directions: http://www.stitchdiva.com/custom.aspx?id=111

Yardage used is a guestimate. I had to frog one of hubby’s not-so-great hats to finish!
