2 Pink Hats for 2 Pink Babies

I am working on 2 hats for my 2 granddaughters.  One of the reasons I love crochet is I don't need a pattern, I can just build these hats as I go, intuitively.  I went to Michaels last week to take advantage of some yarn sales with my extra 20% off coupon and this skein of yarn caught my eye.  I had no idea what I would do with it, but decided to make some hats for my granddaughters.  I started crocheting and OH MY! this lovely design emerged!  

The yarn is Bernat Baby Jacquards "Florals" and this color is called "Rosebud".  I am going to make earflaps with ties and a flower for the top.  I will for sure show you how it turns out but I just wanted to share how pretty this yarn crochets up!!

We've spent time the last 2 days with our youngest son, his lovely wife, and our 2 grandsons.  Oh my! Little boys are so energetic!  Sorry this photo is so fuzzy, I didn't take my good Canon for this visit and used my iPhone - but you can see how cute and wiggly they are.  2 1/2 and 1 1/2.  They are so fun!!  Their mommy told me they both need new winter hats, so I will be working on those after I finish the pink hats! :-)

My DIL and I collaborated on dinner last night here at the farm and made chicken fried steak, maple sausage, country gravy, hashbrowns, scrambled eggs, biscuits served with butter and our homemade raspberry freezer jam.  Our son raved over how pretty and tasty the jam was so we will be making LOTS more raspberry freezer jam next summer! :-)

Today is housekeeping day so off I go.. have a great day!!  ((hugs)) Teresa
