O Baby

Last week I was playing around with a hat pattern. I recorded what I was doing, but half way through I decided it was "odd" so I stopped writing the pattern, but finished the hat. When I tried it on, it was sort of cute! I didn't like the yarn I had used - it was too heavy, and I think the color doesn't work well with the pattern, but I liked the shape and fit of the hat.








I thought it would be a cuter hat if it where done in a darker yarn - something varigated, and if it were made in a smaller size for a child or baby. Last night I made this version:





I like the way it came out.

While the pattern is rather simple, I had a heck of a time putting it into writing. I have a few crocheters from Crochetville testing the pattern for me, and as soon as they give me their thumbs up I'll share this pattern.

I've named this one "O Baby Hat" for a special Baby O that I love very much.
