Wrapped in Love Beanie

       Well hello again! And welcome to the new followers, I am so glad you like my blog! I feel terrible that it has been so long since my last post but a lot of things have changed around here since October.  I've been back to work after a long 4 years :o)  I cannot tell you how happy this makes me! Slowly things are turning around and we are getting back on our feet.  I am so happy to take some of the burden off of my wonderful Hubby.  He still works everyday at a job he absolutely despises and for this I am eternally grateful <3
      So anyhoo now that we're all caught up, on to today's post!  I was on the computer one morning surfing on Ravelry and came across the cutest hat.  I just HAD to make it for my girls.  I very rarely buy patterns but with this much cuteness I couldn't resist.   Now since being back to work, I haven't had much time to crochet :o(   So when I sat down to do this hat I was in hooker heaven, it only took me about 2 hours to make!  The instant gratification of completing a project in such a small amount of time was just what I needed.  I made another one the next day for my other daughter.  They both love the new hat and wear it around the house all day.  Here is the hat I made for my oldest daughter;

 

      I told you it was cute!!

         The pattern is available here Wrapped in Love Beanie  It includes many different sizes for the hat, two sizes for the 'ribbon' and two sizes for the bow.  I made the larger bow for this hat and the smaller bow for my youngest daughter.  The sizes for my girls ages were a bit off in the pattern but my kids are pretty small for their size, so I just tweaked it a little to fit them better.  Other than that, the pattern is very well written and I would recommend it to anyone.  Thanks for looking, comments always welcome!
Happy Hooking :o)
