A Good Find: Free Crochet Baby Bonnet Pattern

I was roaming ravelry.com last night and decided to do a search for a free crochet bonnet pattern. A few results appeared, but one of them really stood out. I immediately got to work. I kept Roody up until 1:45 AM working on this little beauty, and I don't regret it.

My New Favorite Thing: Chunky Newborn Hats!

I was on Facebook a couple days ago. One of my favorite newborn photographers in the whole entire world posted a beautiful photo (as usual) but I saw it differently. A prop that she used was so lovely, and she linked to the creator. It was a knitting page. BOOOOO!!! lol

Anyway, a lightbulb went off in my head--I originally started this "business" to create props for newborn photographers to use. Why did I stop?

I decided to continue about my day. I was on Instagram later and noticed the cutest little chunky hat. I almost bought the pattern for it, but then I looked closer. It was the shell stitch! I CAN DO THE SHELL STITCH! So I immediately got to work. This is what I came up with:

Remember The Shelly-Anne Hat Pattern that I wrote a couple weeks ago? Well, it's just that. Expect I used bulky yarn, made 22 rows for the ribbing and 32 sc for the top border. Then I did a progressive "decrease."

Experimenting with Colors: Mixed Texture Striped Hat Pattern

I follow some amazing crochet/knitting pages on Instagram. Every time they post a cute hat, I get jealous. ESPECIALLY if it was knitted, because I know I can't make anything remotely close to that. So I've take it upon myself to become creative with my hats. The ones I've made so far are meh. I want something that looks really cool.

Something amazing happened last night: I was going through Tinderbox's store and stumbled upon the Haily Headband. My friend suggested I make headbands a couple weeks ago, and I'd been looking for the perfect one. Well, ladies and gents, I found it!
