I love that I have such a cute daughter that I can make hats for. It's so much fun! Here are some pictures in all her lovely hats! The black one was inspired by one I saw at the mall - I figured I could make one. One good thing about cold weather in Idaho - hats are in fashion! Feel free to email me for instructions on the hats - if you have a basic knowledge of crochet they are easy and quick. You can complete them in couple of nights while watching television. I have to say there is something very satisfying making things by hand that are used by my child. One of these days I might get ambitious and make something more complicated than a hat!
