These hats were knit and donated to Project Linus in honor of my friends. I like to give them Christmas gifts, but have figured out that they, like me, are probably more interested in downsizing than collecting more "stuff". I had a stack of doll/premie sized knit afghans that I donated also. My prayer is that they will help to warm and comfort many little ones.

I used yarn from my overflowing stash and a simple pattern for the green and blue. The striped hat is made with Lion Brand Ice Cream yarn. I used a free pattern from Ravelry called Swirl Hat by Mandie Harrington. The pattern is quite easy, and I really like the result.
