Hats, Hats and more Hats

My favorite thing to knit is a hat...it's easy, looks cute, and it's useful.  
Here is a gallery of kids hats...this might be where you start to understand the obsessive part...

I have a thing with variegated yarn - it just looks so awesome in the ball - so many colors.  Unfortunately it usually doesn't turn out so great, but I keep trying.

 I love a good cable...
 This is just a simple knit hat and I embroidered the baseball stitches on it
 Making your own hats is especially useful when you want to match a jacket.
 When I was pregnant with my second son I learned to crochet.  This was my first crochet project.
 it was perfect for his little newborn pictures


Once I started crochet it was too fast to stop - these hats take a night or two - ok, they aren't functional, but so cute!


I tried to make this one functional - I made him wear it this winter - I can't help it - so cute!





 Animal hats take it to a whole new level.  This froggy one came out a little big, but we made it work... he shared with Daddy for trick or treating!

Owls were huge this year - and I caught the trend.  A big owl for my big kid

 And a little subtle owl for my little one

 Shrek hat is a great time - this was for the older boy, but he wasn't feeling the modeling that day.
 This is a fan favorite.  Lightening McQueen is a big deal in this house - so I created this pattern for him and he wore it out

 A few days before we went pumpkin picking I NEEDED to have pumpkin hats for both of them.  Probably the last year my older one will let me put a pumpkin hat on him.
 These were the pumpkin hats that were one of my first knitting projects
 These were super fast elf hats for Christmas pictures and Christmas Eve

 The baby needed some cables too
 Double knitting opened up a whole new world of ideas.  A quick knit cap can be customized into anything.
 I made a little chart for this "Mom" hat so that the little one could show some love.
 Sock monkey hats were big this year too - this one was made from super bulky yarn and was really warm.
 The St. Patricks Day hats were a quick fix (the holiday falls in busy season for us auditors - it's gotta be fast).  I  used the double knit to put their names on the hats.

 The giraffe hat was a personal favorite (mine and his)

All my knit and crochet items are logged on Ravelry with links to the patterns.  My Ravelry name is 2boymommy if you want to use any of the patterns
