One More Left
I am now the only member of my household who does not have a hand knit hat.
Project Specs:
Pattern: Top Down Baby Bonnet by Adrian at Hello Yarn
Yarn: Merino 2-ply handspun, leftover from this project
Needles: #3 DPNs
Notes: I never ever make hats for my kids the right size the first time around. Their heads are always so much bigger than I think they are. Both this hat and the one I made for my son earlier this fall (also out of handspun, but never made it to the blog, you can see it here) I had to frog back from the bind off and knit several more inches. You'd think I'd learn, but no.
I have started in on Ariann, and it is the perfect sweater project for me right now - interesting to knit, but does not really require much concentration. It will get its own post later this week hopefully.

The hat is perfect! And just look at those cheeks!
Awwwwwwww! Looks like she's eating good, too. :)
What a darling little hat (and hat-wearer)! Given your history with hat making, it sounds as though you're smart to stick with the top-down variety. :)
hey .. you and me both!
