Fun Baby Hat

I got this yarn in Germany and had to make a baby hat with it. It is sooo much fun to look at.

I love finding different yarn and see what I can do with it.

The Cotton Dish Rag

 

 

 

I have made them myself to give as gifts but never used one until I got one as a gift.

I was amazed how soft it feels and what a great job it does. Not to mention the easy care.

If it is your first time to crochet then this might just be a easy project to practice your stitches and patterns.

 

 Give it a try!
