Antique Mommy is having a carnival today! Here’s some hats I made recently. They’re not really Christmas gifts, since they’re for Anja and me, but they ARE handmade by me. I didn’t take photos of the process, unfortunately, but I will tell you about it.
1. I bought yarn.
2. I made the hats using those little knitting loom thingys (I know, cheater! I can crochet with the best of them, but knitting and I do not get along).
3. I bought some flowers to match the hats
4. I clipped the flowers off their stems and sewed them onto the hats.
If you have made something crafty, why don’t you play along? I’d love to get more ideas for gifts.
I can’t knit either, although I want to – but I could buy a loom. Those are adorable!
So cute! So easy! I so wish I had thought of this before I got my Christmas shopping done! Hmm. BB does need a new hat…
Your talents never cease! These hats are adorable and the fact that you made Mom & Me hats makes me Heart you all the more. Think you could show me how to do that sometime?
Blessings, Whitney
Can we have some pictures of you and Anja wearing them? They’re so cute!
Wow those are pretty. You’re GOOD.
a knitting loom? I never heard of it, I should look into it, I always wanted to knit. those hats are adorable by the way
A-dorable!
those are adorable! Great job.
Cute! Love the color.
Wow. The color is perfect for me. How did you know? Thanks for sharing.
Ohhhh…
I just bought one of those looms. I haven’t tried it yet. How hard is it??????
Love the hats! I’ll have to make some for my daughter and I. What fun!
Thanks for the idea!
I need to find a knitting cheater thingy. Then all my problems would be solved. Probably. Hopefully. Or not. But it would be scads of fun!
The craftiest thing I do is scrapbook! No sewing whatsoever– and I came from a family of crocheters, needlepointers, quilters, sewers, you name it. (I think I was adopted and they never told me! LOL) I admire people who have the patience and talent for those things.
Your hats are absolutely DARLING.
These are the cutest hats EVER!
Heidi, I LOVE those hats! Where did you find that kit? I’m sure it’s at most yarn/knitting stores… but seriously, so cute!
These are adorable! Love the color, too! Susan
Love the hats! How attractive and cute for you and babe!
