My crocheted hat for Mercy
I don't know what has come over me. I have become quite the addict to creating things these last few months. I have had the knitting needles going making mittens, the crochet hooks out making hats (well, the first started out as a handbag...but went very wrong, so hat it became) and not to mention the sewing projects I have going at the same time.
I love how this hat came out. It has a *Rasta* look that I love. Can I make it again? Hmm, that remains to be seen, as I was teaching myself as I went. The hat took 2 evenings to finish and the GREAT thing is I have been losing pounds in the process. Hard to eat chips and salsa while your hands are busy *creating.*
Presently, I am working on a pair of knitted baby pants in a sweet moss green color. A little slow going for my liking, but it is the first pattern that I have been able to work my way through without getting *stuck*. Praising God for that, as I just haven't ever been able to understand patterns. Perhaps I am growing up (finally!)?
Off to work on the pants, kids are napping and the house is currently so quiet. Hope you find a time of quiet today too.

What a beautiful little hat and her smile is so gorgeous!
She is so beautiful! My boys think she's too cute. It's funny that your hat started as a bag... I have a knit hat that needs to be turned into a bag!
Oh my goodness that is SO CUTE! You've got some serious talent mommy!!
Hi Kimmie :) I love that sassy hat on your sweetie girl! It's adorable. Nevah knew that baby pink could be sassy ;)
Love to you & hugs, Q

That last picture is the sweetest, Kimmie! Yay for those creative moments that come upon us :-) I guess I should get more serious about some of the creative hobbies if they are also weight loss encouragers ;-)

Great pictures of your creation and HIS creation! :) Very nice.
That is one cute hat, good job. Interestingly enough, the first thing I ever crocheted was a hat that didn't work out and ended up as a bag, lol.
The end result is perfect for your little gal, she's so precious!
