I got lost down the rabbit hole last evening (aka websurfing) and stumbled across the cutest baby and hat I’ve ever seen. The picture is from Cast on Cast Off (a U.K. blogger):
I mean, how cute is this lil one?
The pattern looks adorable on the above cutie and is called the Baby Pixie Hat from Crystal Palace Yarns. I have no one to knit this for (thank goodness)!
I have 12 inches on my sleeve: over half-way done! Woo Hoo!
It is disconcerting to knit the pattern upside down as I cannot see the trees emerging. I hope when I turn it around, it’s correct!
It is a bottomless pit, that websurfing. Talk about a time warp! Two minutes = two hours in webland.. too bad my menstual cycle is not in that time zone.
You have the patience of JOB with your sleeve! The work you create is fabulous and soooo labor intensive. I love it!

Adorable and wow, that sleeve is impressive.
Magic loop now scares me.

AHA! I just found out today about a baby due in May — I forsee a pixie hat in my
future. Thanks for the link. The hat is adorable.

Oh my! Look at that expression. Pixie is darling and the sleeve is, indeed, impressive. Almost home. Keep up the great work!
