One of my customers, a professional photographer, asked me to make a bunny hat for an Easter photo baby props. She picked the colors and let me to create what I thought would be perfect for a baby girl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So I started the other day. She picked very special yarn. Soft but curly and you cannot see the stitches only feel them with your fingers. That is sometimes a problem for beginners so my recommendation is to use another thread in the same color. It works and you still are\u00a0able to make this wonderful soft and fluffy baby hat.<\/p>\n
I love this yarn. It is perfect for autumn, spring and winter season. So yummy to work with. I can imagine apart from hats also baby blankets, mitts, neck warmers, baby booties or a sleeping baby bag. I also tried a crocheted and stuffed pompom from this material and it worked perfectly (I like crocheted pompoms as the children cannot chew on loosen strings).<\/p>\n
It also has a metallic effect and the simple the pattern the better.<\/p>\n
