After years of attempting to try and teach myself how to knit, I have finally become successful, thanks to the wonderful videos knitters have posted on youtube. I made my first item which was an infant sized hat. It wasn't perfect, but I was happy because it was the first thing I ever made. I managed to finish it this morning while I was in morning care. So, today I asked the class, whose mom was having a baby? Adrian announced this the other day, so he raised his hand and I said okay I will give this to your mom as a gift and that I would try to make another item to go with. Adrian was very excited and says, "Oh, good because my mom doesn't have any hats for the baby."
At the end of the day one of the children was looking at the hat, commenting on how little it was and cute. When up walks another child, who grabs the hat and sticks it on his head. Needless to say the hat is now stretched out and too big to fit an infant. Adrian walks up shortly after to see what happened, I tell him it will be alright that I will make the baby a new hat. Adrian replies back, "Well, do you think you could make a pink one, it is a girl."
For the record the original hat was a very light color of mint green, I thought it could go either way, but maybe I'm wrong.
Congratulations!! I started a throw for my family room last winter and you just reminded me about it! I'll need to pull that out and start up again. I'll be happy to help if you get stuck with anything:)
