So here we have "The Cousin Hats." A boy and girl version, but coordinating. The base is the same, I used the free Scandihoovian Hat pattern on Ravelry. The green yarn is scraps left over from last year's yarn wreaths.
From there, I added my own touches. A big crochet flower for the girl hat (yes, I am now branching out into crochet, Lord help me):
And a fun, bad ass Mohawk for the boy version (insert electric guitar solo here):
Both were finished off with crochet trim- it is on backwards, but when I fixed it I actually preferred this look, so I ripped it out again and redid it like this! Also threw some braids on the sides.
If you want more deets, visit my Ravelry page here.
So awesome! I hope she shares pics of the babies wearing them with you!
ReplyDeleteAdorable!! Love the flower detail :)
ReplyDeleteI love them. That green is a great colour.
ReplyDeleteThey look so small they could be egg warmers!
ReplyDeleteI love that you went against the tide and used a non conformist colour - you rebel you!
ReplyDeleteLOVE those hats . Mohawk indeed. That is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. You could make and sell these and -they're so darn cute!
ADORABLE!!! I have gotta learn how to crochet or knit! Smiles~Beth
ReplyDeleteSo cool...love the cousins` hats!
ReplyDeletethey are just gorgeous - love the green wool - so cute :)
ReplyDeleteThese are so adorable - I love the colours!
ReplyDeleteAdorable hats but gorgeous kids! I picked up the pattern from Fibre MOnkey, but I'm confused and hoping you could help out. It says in Row 1 to K1,M1 repeat. What does M1 stand for? Multiple a stitch is the only thing I can think of but I've never heard that phrase while knitting. Plese help me if you can. Thanks Kristie.
