Another Hat



After making a hat for my daughter, my son decided he wanted a hat.  He was begging for a sock monkey hat. So we looked and looked. All over the internet, all over Etsy, everywhere. When he finally picked what he wanted, it was a standard DC beanie with a sock monkey face stitched on it.

I finished the beanie in one day. I used the "magic" ring, perfected the DC stitch, learned how to finish a row and move up, switched hooks to make the bottom of the hat come in just a tad, and of course - now my hands are sore!

*sigh*

But, he loves his hat. He slept with it on, he washed his face and pulled it back on this morning, and has been asking me when I will put on the face.

*sigh*

Just as soon as mommy's hands uncurl and I can feel my fingers dear son.
