Notice that she is in short sleeves and a diaper. The high today is supposed to be 70. Can you believe this??? We're in Tennessee for goodness sakes. Kind of hard to get into that Christmas spirit. Anyways, back to the hat. The pattern is at http://www.goodknit.net/pages/fpat.html and I used Patons Astra which is an acrylic yarn. I may do this again in a wool yarn, but I was nervous knitting on straight needles. I like to knit on circulars in the round. But I loved learning how to mattress stitch up the seams. FABULOUS!!! My cousin's little girl requested one last night when we were putting up my grandmother's tree. So, I may have to make her one too. :)
Tonight is the annual Sloan Christmas party, which is when my mother's brother and sisters get together with their children and their children's children. It should be fun! I've made a cheese and pecan ball and need to start the rotel dip and sausage balls. Chris (hubby) is taking some deer summer sausage and a cheese platter. So needless to say, I need to get busy!
But of course, more hat pics! Oh, and in the last picture, she was saying "Dada." I've yet to get her to say "Mama" although I've tried. Oh, how I've tried!!!
