Tomorrow I am going to a baby shower….and the Mom-to-Be had shown me a flowered baby hat on Etsy and asked if I could make something like that..I said sure….she then mentioned she just wanted a cute hat to use to take pictures….then a few days later she linked to a Yoda hat and commented on it (not to me)….so I thought hats, I’m going to make her some hats…I’ve made 9! And I started two others…one is with candy corn striped yarn…it’s going to be just a regular hat with a giant pompom…the other is one of those square looking hats…and I have used all yarn from my stash…imagine my joy at finding Yoda colored yarn! I’ve made a variety of sizes…
basic newborn hat
Yoda hat (alpaca yarn felted)
An owl (her nursery has owls) My favorite
A puppy (The Hubs says it’s creepy) but the Mom-to-Be enjoys creepy…made her the bride and groom from Creepy crochet…The colors are the colors of her actual Australian sheep dog…but should I put a nose on it?
I made this hat a long time ago and it’s been sitting around, so I added the caterpillar and called it done…
I had the flowers made, they were leftover from a scarf I made, so I designed the hat around them..it’ll be a cute sunbonnet..my favoritest yarn Manos de Uruguay cotton stria, which they have discontinued (I horde it when I find it in stores)
Suppose to be a monkey, but ears are wrong, kinda looks like a bear…may make the ears bigger or put a monkey face on it…what do you think?
The one that started it all…again, cotton stria…..
So this is what I’ve been making this week….

ETA: There are nine..the first one I made awhile ago and posted about it here

The hats are all so cute!
Brilliant gift, those hats are completely wonderful!!!
What a great collection of hats! I love the caterpillar. I vote for giving the puppy a nose. Your friend is very lucky.
For the puppy hat, I might consider adding a nose. It is a little creepy...
Does the monkey hat have to be a monkey? Could it be a bear? Maybe a face would help.
Sometime, I'll learn how to crochet properly...
Cute hats! The owl and Yoda are my favs :)
All cute, but the caterpillar hat rocks! Those embellishments are so darling - what a great idea!
Very cute hats, I love the owl! Maybe try a nose on the puppy and see what you think.
Love! Love! LOVE! Those hats. I am such a hat gal so seeing so many adorable hats is totally rock star. The yoda hat is perfect and being Alpaca is all the better. I have a young Jedi living in the house so anything Star Wars is always a winner.
I love those hats, they're all so cute! Great gifts :)
A great collection of hats. The sunbonnet is my fav.
Thank you to everyone..I just finished two more hats for tomorrow..I'll post them at a later date...I added a row of hdc to the monkey ears and they look better...also decided not to add a nose to the puppy...it gave him a decided lemur looking face...I love lemurs, but want this to be a puppy...
Oh, what a darling friend you are!! Sometimes more is MORE, and this is one of those times!!
I love them all and you are amazingly creative to think of such a great gift!! XXO-
Those hats are awesome! Love the yoda one.
