Please Share the Love
Hi there. Welcome to my little blog. I am so glad that you are here.
Today I want to share one of the projects that I completed recently. I was in the mood to crochet and I wanted something quick - I wanted instant gratification - but what to do.
Then my daughter came home with a new hat for her little girl. It was cute - simple - easy - inspiration for my next project.
I was able to whip up a crocheted hat in a couple of hours. So I made three - one for each granddaughter. Well except for the granddaughter that already had a store bought hat.
The flower was not as easy as the hat. You can see that the red flower is different than the off white flowers. It was my first attempt and looking at it now, I think I like it best.
Thanks again for visiting, and have a fantastic day.

Honey Bunny wanted a blue hat with a red flower. |
Baby Cakes and Sweetie Pie love their new hats. |
