I've been making hats!

I've been working on hats for all this kids this Christmas! I love this pattern, it is one of my favorites.... Go to Double Double crochet hat pattern to get it. I have made just plain beanies with it, and I have also made some earflaps. My fave is the alpaca in the middle. It's so soft, and I love the color. I have been dying to go and get more of this yarn at my local yarn shop (something olde something new), but keep looking at allllllll of the yarn that I have on hand and it just doesn't make sense to go buy more. I have two more hats to make for presents for my friends kids, and then it's on to something new, like valentine themed hats and scarfs, or who knows!

    Beautiful hats! I love the look of the pattern, and they look really warm too. Did you use the 2 strands of yarn, or just a bulkier yarn? I want to make this, but don't want to use 2 strands of yarn. TIA!

    Hi Esther! I used 2 strands, but you can use a bulky yarn instead. I've made this pattern either way and it always turns out great.
    Have fun, I would love to see the pictures when your done!
