Cherries Galore
Well, I made yet another hat yesterday. Why another hat? Well, Royal got me this new book called Itty Bitty Hats for Christmas, so that is where all my inspiration has been coming from. AND I’ve only been using scrap yarn that I have around, and with scrap yarn, usually I only have enough to make baby hats out of it.
Yesterday, I pretty much didn’t do anything. Well, that’s not true, I did do some cooking for my boys, and I did do 7 loads of laundry (guess I’d been putting it off, but when people start running out of socks and underwear you just have to buckle down and spend some time with the washer, dryer, and baskets and baskets of clothes, however Royal did do all the folding…hmmm maybe I really didn’t do anything), but other than that I pretty much lounged around and I made this! The Cherry Hat!
Although, I’m not sure the red balls look like cherries, they kinda looked like strawberries to me for awhile, and then later on I thought they looked a little like radishes, so I messed around with them to get them into a better ball shape, but I’m just not sure they pull off they whole cherry thing. Maybe they are more like Christmas ornaments, the green leaves could be like holly, the red stripes could be a candy cane…so really this could be a Christmas hat. Hmm…that’s kinda sad because it limits the time the hat can be worn. So, I’m going to say they are cherries! I hope you’ll agree. Don’t you like how Royal’s husky guy thingy is always the model/hat stand? I do.
I am thinking maybe you should make a hat for GeeGee. She needs something to cover up the bald spot on her head that has 10 staples to close up her scalp. The hair is looking very, very sad. I sure one of you hats would be a big improvement.
My little Husky Guy is not afraid of some hats. He relishes the opportunity to show that he is well rounded, and he knows that being a hat model drives the ladies wild. OOOHH YEEEAAAH!
your hats are so so so cute!…..you keep making baby hats…..one of these days the odds are there will be a little baby head for them to sit on…..
remember….you can always go through my stash of yarn and make a baby blanket!
keep those needles clicking!
hugs to you and your boys
