When Patrick saw that I was knitting hats for the baby, he told me he wanted me to make one like his for the baby. His was made from leftover yarn from JD's Irish Hiking Scarf and was initially for JD himself, but it turned out too small. Patrick commendeered it for himself and loves it for some reason. I was digging around in my yarn bags the other day and found a little ball of leftover yarn from the first hat. It didn't look like enough for me to make a hat, but I figured I'd make it work because it would make Patrick happy. Here's the hat, the leftover yarn [a bit over twelve inches] and Patrick's hand for comparison. I just barely made it with the length. And here's Patrick with his own hat and the baby's. He was really happy with I finished it - he told me it was 'beautiful.' Awwwwwwwwww! Stats: Yarn - Vanna's Choice in rust Needles - CPY size 7's
