PLEASANTLY PURPLE

I like the looks of this predominately purple colored hat with the lilac colored brim trim.  It is knit with double yarns and is so soft to the touch.  I bet someone's ears will like that this winter.

FIRE AND EMBERS

 
This hat has a super thick band and it will definitely keep somebody's ears warm this winter.  The color combination reminds me of the 1950's when pink and black, worn together, was very popular.  Winter is coming and along with that--cold weather.  Head protection.  Check!  Great colors.  Check!! Check!!

THE OTHER EIGHT

Here are the rest of the hats that I knit during the purple hats for babies campaign. They are all warm and snuggly for the winter months and very soft to the touch.  I hope some little babies enjoy wearing these hats and I hope the color of the hats calls attention to the period of "purple crying" and our need for understanding as this to shall pass.

eight purple hats

I made eight little purple baby hats. Why?  I wanted to support a knitting project that I became aware of recently.  The project involved knitting purple colored hats to be given to newborn babies during the months of November and December.  The purple color is associated with the period of "purple crying" in babies and serves as a reminder for all of us that this period of crying will pass.  Hugs and babies go together.  Show the love!!

MMMMM

mmmmm...how delicious!  The berries and the hat are just right.  The pastel knit hat is thick enough to keep the head warm all Winter and into the Spring.  O.K., now let's eat!

TIPSY

This is a very snuggly warm hat.  I used a solid blue yarn and mixed it with a colorful variegated yarn.  It is double knit at the brim so the ears will stay nice and toasty warm.  Cute, too.

RAINBOW SHERBET

The pastel stripe cuff on this hat has the same the colors and flavors of rainbow sherbet.  This knit hat is sure to keep a little head snuggly warm against a chilly breeze.  Looks delicious, too.
