Lent Hats week 6

My stash of baby appropriate yarn is starting to dwindle, I may have to {gasp} buy some more yarn! 

If you haven't already, head over to my book review blog and enter to win a copy of Frank Peretti's new book, Illusion.  Only 3 days left and right now you stand a really good chance to win since there are currently on 10 entries as I write this post!



Hat 1 is the Very Basic Baby Beanie by Janet Russell.  Super simple and classic style.

Hat 2 is the Stretchy Crocheted Hat (yes, the first pattern repeat) I added some crochet spirals to the top

Hat 3 is the Basket Weave Baby Hat  you can't really see the basket weave texture in the photo but I promise it is there!

Hat 4 is the Crochet Baby Hat by Kathy Shute.  The weather here had started to warm up and I wanted to make a little sunhat.  This is quick to work up and cute on Princess A's dolls so I hope it will be cute on a baby too

Hat 5 is from the Little Baby Filet Crochet  set by Kathy North.  There is a cute blanket to match at the link as well

Hat 6 is the Tea Time Baby Beanie.  I struggled with this one the entire day until I realized I was reading the pattern incorrectly!  After that it went really fast!

So there you have it, and I now have a total of 28 Lent hats.  I just sent off a package to God's Tiny Angels that included the hats I have made so far and a few sweaters, booties and dresses.  Please consider making an item and donating it if you chose to use any of the patterns I have shared.

Until next time,
