Here is a bit of knitting to show you ...
A "Vintage Pixie Hat" from my "Vintage Knits for Modern Babies" book.
I started this hat back in October - but as with most of my projects - when it comes to sewing it together ... it ends up at the bottom of my pile!
I used some odd balls of Rowan Cashsoft Chunky yarn, which is sadly now discontinued and I don't have enough to make some matching mittens. I will have to have a hunt around for something similar. I lined the hat for extra cosiness. I think it looks very pretty.
The only problem is that the strap isn't long enough to get round Baby Plum's chin!! Ha Ha Ha ... will have to attach some ribbon, methinks.
I will post pictures of Baby Plum modelling the hat tomorrow!
