at mitt by scaffold This was the subject line in some junk mail I got this morning. I like to read them out loud (they always sound better out loud) and then say "Yes!" "Absolutely!" "Just what I wanted!" right before I delete them.
But this marshmallow bonnet with the pink squiggles is the real deal. "Yes, absolutely, just what I wanted!" Why didn't I put the squiggles on in the first place??
The pink is left over from the bee's knees sweater (I'm making use of all those color sequence repeats I had to wind off to get the pieces to match). I'm so excited about how good it looks with the peachy/pink ribbon from the großmutter sweater. I really think this hat will work well with both sweaters. Which means that I can move on to the next page in the book and make a different hat. "Yes!" "Absolutely!" "Just what I wanted!" posted by alison at 8:55 am | in

Way too cute! Love the squiggles! Posted by: Phoebe at January 5, 2007 8:59 AMWhat fun! I love the way you are using all the scraps from color matching. Your little one is going to be quite the coordinated Miss! Posted by: Jennifer at January 5, 2007 9:59 AMThe squiggles are PERFECT! What a cute hat! Posted by: nova at January 5, 2007 10:36 AMToo cute! Love it even more with the squiggles. Your baby will be adorable in it! Posted by: Mary Heather at January 5, 2007 10:39 AMVery cute. I bought "Itty Bitty Hats" the first night I saw it -- unusually decisive for me, but man, those are some CUTE HATS. Posted by: Daphne at January 5, 2007 12:30 PMEeep! So cute! Posted by: colleen at January 5, 2007 12:39 PMWhat a cute little hat, and I just love your model! Posted by: Mary at January 5, 2007 12:55 PMI just love that hat! I bet it'll look even better on the baby than it does on the puppy. My little boy looks so much like a girl that I might be able to pull that off if I make one for him. :) Posted by: Cambria W at January 5, 2007 12:59 PMIt's just the right finishing touch! Posted by: Nadia Lewis at January 5, 2007 1:16 PMYes - the squiggles definitely make the hat. Posted by: Donna at January 5, 2007 1:38 PMI love the Itty Bitty Hats book. I bought it last weekend and I started the bunny tail hat today. Fun Fun! I really like the squiggles on your wee one's hat. What a lucky girl! Posted by: Carole at January 5, 2007 11:41 PMAww....those squiggles just make the bonnet even cuter! Posted by: yuvee at January 6, 2007 6:37 AMThat's so incredibly cute!!
