In the making: White & Pink Open Weave Ally Beanie \\ Newborn Baby Girl

I went to Michael's the afternoon with Chrissie and purchased some new yarn. I thought I had enough to make a blanket to cover the world, but it turns out that my stock isn't very good. I bought all Vanna's Choice. Some pinks, greys and a white. I was supposed to make some more baby head bands, but I've decided instead to make a cute little beanie.

I messed up. Misinterpreted the directions, so I had to erase about 10-15 minutes of work.

In the making: Mixed Brown Headband \\ Newborn Baby Girl

I'm supposed to be editing Mil Ball photos, but I really wanted to use the natural daylight to get some props done. The hat I made last night was way too big for the baby that came to the studio. I tried the newborn version on him and it was too long. I was disappointed, but I was also glad that I was able to find that out on my own, as opposed to finding out from a client.

So now I have to redo those.

But not now. I'm trying to make this headband:


With this yarn as the band:


Let's see how this goes!

Turns out that my yarn is broken. Are you serious!! Good thing I found out in row 1 and not the last row...

In the Making: Green Newsboy Hat \\ 4-Month-Old Baby Boy

I have a little one coming to the studio tomorrow afternoon, and I want him to be the first to try out my hats. I'm currently working on a little newsboy hat in green. I made one a few days ago in brown, but it's way too small. I need to work on not making my stitches so tight!

Anyway, time to get to work!
