I've picked up my hooks and yarn and started crotcheting again. I'm making hats to give as Christmas gifts. It doesn't cost me anything because I already have the supplies, but you know me.. I HAD to go to the craft store looking! I found a book of cute baby items, and some yarn in lovely colors! I only spent $25 and I've already made 6 hats... So overall not bad, huh? |

I tried making booties and failed, so once I learn I'm going to make those too. |

Soo.. The hats I made for the 3 babies are all too small. Its hard when going by a pattern and having no way to measure their heads. So, here I go to remake three baby hats bigger! I'm making my ex MIL a hat and matching scarf. It'll fit because adult hats are pretty much one size fits all. |

yeah. I remember getting a wayy- too-small homemade hat for DD as a gift when she was about 1. Babies have HUGE heads! By the time DD was 2or3, I bought her a hat (that fit her) but took to wearing it myself. It fit me. And I have a big head (both literally & figuratively ; ) |

And the 3 babies are different ages so that makes it harder. Im going to have the middle childs hat go to the 3 month old.. Lol.. Both are boys so I think a regifting is ok.. I'm redoing the girl (age 3) a new hat altogerher, and the middle boy will get one I have already made, just darker blue... Sooo maybe I'll get by with only having to make the one girls hat! |

Regifting is CERTAINLY okay. (I favor regifting in almost any situation, btw!) I believe the one that was made for DD was saved & repurposed as a doll hat. (In fact, it was about the right size for a standard 18" doll, I think) |

Oohh... Great idea! I will make the girl a new hat just like the other hat, and let her keep the other one for her dolls! These children are my boy's mentor's 3 children. I wanted to do this for their kids because this couple has done so much for my children over the years. |

It's wonderful that your boy got a mentor who is such a blessing to you all! : ) |
