I finished an order late last night and I’m actually really excited about it. My FAVORITE kind of order! My instructions were to make three baby toques. Yup, that was it. I could be completely creative! It took a little longer than an average order for a beanie toque, but only because I was thoroughly enjoying trying new things and making up different patterns. Wanna see? Wanna see?!
This first one really is just the average beanie. However, it is made with the same wool I used to make her daddy’s toque last Christmas. Plus a flower. I’ve crocheted plenty of flowers but I really like this one! I might have to buy some of those alligator clips so the flower could be changed out for different colors. Hmmm…
For some reason, this toque was really hard to get a good picture of. It looks kind of mushy but trust me, I have one like this, and it smoothes out really nice when it’s on. The pattern I used wanted me to even the bottom out, but I think it looks a little more feminine and cute this way.
My FAVORITE! My first attempt at a slouchy hat! I LOVE this pattern and am in the process of making one for myself. It was surprisingly quick to make too! I just hope it slouches on such a teeny little head. And I guess I should clarify, the real color is a little bluer than this, but either way, the design is cute I think!
So, success 🙂 I’m happy the goal is met and accomplished, but I’m sad it’s over. I really enjoyed this order. Onto baby boots, and then another slouchy toque for another teeny little baby head. But they might have to wait. Or I may just work on them in the car, during the trip. Brady and I are disappearing to a concert tomorrow evening in Regina and are spending the night away.
Finally finding rest.
My favourite is the third too!
I just finished a slouchy style one for myself 🙂 Love it!
Lookin’ gooooooood, Darlin’.
Sanks mom!
