It sure seems like I’m punching out these FOs! It’s easy when they are hats for babies. And when they are really fun to knit!
YODA!
My Yoda hat (that I started just last week!) is kind of a pre-FO, since I haven’t felted it. But I don’t have a washing machine, or my nephew Baby Nolan’s head to fit it to, so I’m sending it off to my mom to felt and get the sizing right. This is a really fun, easy hat to throw together and while I’m not a big felter, I’m sure this hat is going to turn out awesome!
Princess Leia!
I also finished up my niece Ryenn’s Princess Leia hat. This pattern is fantastic! It’s so detailed. From the front hair shaping to the part down the center of the hat, I was really impressed while I was knitting it! And the icord buns really make it perfect.
BIG BUNS
Putting this hat on a boot just doesn’t do it justice. I’ll be sending both of these hats to my mom, so I’ll have hats on babies pictures to share soon. But in the mean time, get excited! There are going to be some super cute baby pictures coming your way.

Breaking News: Ryenn really liked how her hat looked. But…Nolan was a different story. I was in the middle of sizing it when he decided to take a nap. We did a good job guessing because when he got up I put it on him and it was a perfect fit! He ripped it off so fast I couldn’t get a picture. Hopefully He just had a problem with it cause it was still wet.
We will try again after I get the ears to stick out!
