The direction for Hat is given for one size and the difference for Infant/Child/Adult sizes is the different yarn used (Light/DK 3/Medium 4). Just have a fun creating a look you will love!! A great addition for spring/summer wardrobe. This hat is fun to make and fabulous to wear!

Thursday’s Moments 13. Special Order
| July 14, 2011 | Filled under Thursday's Moments |
Probably you know that 6 years ago, right before My Little GityGirl was born, I’ve been working as designer, knitter and crocheter with one Amazing woman, an owner of Fine Custom Knitwear company specialized mainly on ladies hand knitted coats, felted hats, scarves and other accessories, including some Judaic stuff.
Now, with so many grand sons and daughters she does not have enough time to keep that business but we still stay in touch and this week I was working on Joyce’s request to make some Judaic hats for her great friend. Even if I don’t take custom orders any more, this one was the only exception I made in last 2 years plus it brought me back to some nice memories…
Happy Thursday, everyone!!
