I know, I know. Technically it is a Saturday. But I forgot. We will blame it on the time change clock thingy or something. Wait. That is happening today. Nevermind. Anyhoo, I made the sugar bear hat for a friend about to give birth in the cascade 220 superwash in a light blue. Problem is, I forgot to take a picture of it before I sent it out. So you will have to trust me when I say that it turned out super cute. The pattern is by Kate Oates. Everything by her is super cute. I made the 0-6 months, and my guage was spot on, and it still turned out large. I take comfort in this because the pic of the pattern showed the 0-6 month hat stretched out on what looked like a 2 year old. So it looks like he will get a lot of use out of it. At least I hope so. It is always a hit or miss game when you knit something for someone else. But I have faith. Anyways, it turned out adorable.
