We had an unusual cold snap in early January, and all I could think about was my little godson's tiny head - yes, I'm sure his parents had prepared for winter, but as cold as it was, I knew he needed wool. I finally put to use some beautiful wool my dear friend Amanda had sent me when I was recovering from surgery over 2 years ago - this alpaca yarn was so divinely soft, I knew it must be for a special project:
I couple of my dear friends in NY sent me that adorable ribbon, and it was perfect for this little gift.
I used the free Very Basic Baby Beanie pattern on Ravelry and lo and behold, it was a perfect fit!
He also seems to find the wool quite tasty, added bonus. :)
