The head at Greenwich Steiner School where Luke attends Kindergarten had a baby girl back in November and the school community gathered together some gifts, so I knitted up another Clover Earflap Hat.
This time round I actually followed the pattern properly and even though my previous version looked lovely, but this looks even sweeter.
Because I knew it was a girl I was able to pick this sweet lilac, which I had left in my stash.
Now that I understand the pattern, I would love to make some more of these, so I just have to find some willing recipients.
And the crown of this hat is absolutely gorgeous, albeit hard to photograph.
Next time though I think I would knit it in the round, eliminating the need for sewing up.
