Two hats in one evening...

Well, my 5yo dd decided to cut off nearly all her hair night before last. (Personally I wasn't that upset about it- its just hair and it WILL grow back - and besides - its HER head, not mine lol she is the one who has to deal with the consequences). Anyway - I decided to "yarn her up" (as my kids would say) a new hat. The first one was with WalMart ordinary RedHeart in "Bikini". It turned out cute, so I decided to use some of the nicer yarn I had in my stash. Unfortunately I can't remember the kind it was, but I assume it was YarnBee because I bought it at HobbyLobby. It was an "eyelash" type yarn and VERY soft. The hat is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E! So now my 8yo dd and my 5yo ds are very jealous. LOL. After another trip to Wallyworld I picked up some camo-colored yarn and some yummy purple Bernat. I'm using a different pattern - one from a book my mom gave me today. It has a cable row for the brim and then a generic STST type beanie with a pompom, which I will probably leave off lol....
I hope to get pics of everything I've made up on here tomorrow and get this blog up and running like I want it, even if I am the only person who ever reads it. :-)
