Hmmm, what to make.

I've been trying to make something for months for little swordfish, but with little success. At first I found a great blanket, but then I stopped liking it so much so I stopped. I found another blanket pattern, but I ran out of yarn and had to unravel it all (so sad). My mother is planning on making a quilt and I think my sister is going to make a blanket. I will be loaned some clothes so I don't want to make clothes that they will never have a chance to wear. So, I had a conundrum.

Then I thought, hmm, she will be born in the wintertime. All new babies in the winter need HATS! That's it. I will make hats, and so I have.
This is the first little had I made. It will fit a newborn head. It's going to be so cute I might explode. I can't wait to put it on her little head.
After making the owl had, I figured I would do something a little feminine since I haven't really made a girly hat before. It was pretty easy and as you can see, really cute. Hats are so quick and fun to make. I'm actually working on a 3rd right now. I got all my patterns from ravelry, which is a great knitting site. I highly recommend it to anyone who even thinks about knitting something.

After I finish this last hat I will be making my first major project. It is a winter baby sack that fits in the car seat. I hope to start it soon, and I'll post pictures as soon as I can.
