I came across this hat, all i can say is - I LOVE IT!! Thanks for posting it! I can't get on with dpns, so i tried it on straight needles and it worked out ok.
I knit for a charity called Bonnie Babies - www.bonniebabies.co.uk - so will be knitting more for them.
I made this hat. It was so easy and I love your decreases.
Thank you. Sending my hat to a battered women's shelter in Pine Ridge Reservation in SD.
Take Care,

I just made this hat for a friend's shower gift. It knit up super quick and cute. Thanks!
Thanks for the cute pattern - I was looking for a fun, simple hat for babies to send to my cousin serving in Afghanistan. He's a medic, so I think he'll find lots of little ones to share them with.
Thanks for the pattern, loved the decrease. Made this hat for the hospital nursery where I work. Loved how it turned out, plan to make many more for them.
