white and fluffy, but not a bunny
a baby hat!knit project: bunny hat - inspired by erika knight's pixie hat
difficulty (1-5): 1.1
size: 12 mo
yarn: berroco's plush in crema (1901)
knitting specs: US 10 cir.
i made this fluffy baby hat this weekend for a dear friend at work- her cutest baby girl is having a one-year birthday in a few days. my friend (not a knitter), who has been a loyal listener of my projects, my obsession of knitting and even goes to yarn shops with me during lunch breaks, deserves some hand-knit goodies from me, don't you think?
she actually picked the yarn during a recent LYS trip with me, it's berroco's plush! i modified the pixie hat pattern (knitting for two by erika knight) a bit and came up with this white fluffy bunny-like hat with ear flaps. i think it will look quite adorable on any babies!
oh, how gratifying! a quick project that's guarantee to be loved by the recipient. i need more of these.

Berroco Plush is one of my favorite yarns. It's so soft and wonderful. The hat is terribly cute.
