More Hats

While I've been busy with my little boy, I have made a little time for knitting baby hats.  Many people I know are having babies and my little guy needs a hat too!

Today I finished a preemie hat for a little one who has arrived super early.  Beside it is one of the two hats I made for my little guy.  The second photo is the other hat I made for him.  It is one in the team colours for his dad's Aussie Rules team the Central Blues.

Preemie Hat

A couple of weeks ago some friends of ours had their baby about 6 weeks early. A beautiful, healthy but tiny tiny baby girl. I had knitted a baby hat for them, but of course at the moment it is a little on the huge side. So decided to try making a preemie hat. Found a pattern for a preemie cap at Lion Brand wool, knitted it up, but added the "umbilical cord" hat (From the Stitch n Bitch book) topper to it. It turned out kind of cute and hopefully just the right size.

And some other hats i made as a size comparison.
