Baby hats
I'm Jennifer and I'm just back to knitting outside of my house after the birth of my daughter this past May. I love knitting and try to find time every day to work on projects. Most of my design work is small items, like baby hats. Right now I am working on a pair of hats in Landscapes (Rose Garden) for the daughters of two friends. I used Landscapes (also in Rose Garden) with a Fun Fur trim in Champagne to make a toddler poncho for my niece. I didn't know the gender of my baby, so my little girl doesn't yet have anything in Landscapes, but she's next on the list. I'm thinking about making a cardigan with snap closures and Fun Fur trim. I want something that is easy to put on and take off when dressing her. Got to go, nap time could end any minute!

Jennifer's too modest to mention it, but she designed the Umbilical Cord Hat in Debbie Stoller's first book, Stitch 'n Bitch: The Knitter's Handbook.

Well then, I must say thank you to Jennifer. I just learned to knit after the birth of my first son (he's going to be 1 on Sept. 5th) and the Umbilical Cord Hat was my first project!

where could I find a pattern for the baby hat? I have a new great-grandaughter and winter is surely coming - would really like to be ahead of the game. Also looks like a great hat that could enlarged slightly for a couple of adults(?)
thanks. B
