I made this cute hat for a friend of mine. As you can see he is a Jets fan. Its for his niece who is at the tender age of 1 year old. I tried to make it as girly as I could. If it was up to him he would have a beanie with just 2 shoelaces. LOL No really he is a great guy just funny like that. I followed a pattern on most of the hat but I liked the braid tie look so I added that. The 1st pic shows with out the little flower I added. 2nd pic shows it. I was really surprised I was able to make it look like a girls hat because of the dark green color but I think it looks great. The mittens are a surprise too since I never crocheted mittens. Very fun project. Now I am off on another one. I didn't use any special yarn for this. I used Vannas White for this project. The pictures could be a little better but my friend wanted it today because big sis is leaving town on Friday. On top of that it was raining all day here. So I had to use my phone camera.
