Finished Object Friday: Kid Knits in Action

I'll admit it was a lovely long Thanksgiving weekend. I'm sorry I haven't been able to post sooner, but I was ... doing and having a great time with my family. And this week, well ... I've been working. It's been work to work, if you know what I'm saying.

Anyhow, this little man belongs to my friend, W. I was excited when he was having this other Kid, since I am a huge fan of his #1 already. I knit this sweater in anticipation of his arrival and look! His parents actually put him in it!


I think this whole family is pretty cool beans so I thought I'd try for matching troll hats next.I was a little concerned they would be a bit small since it called for Madelinetosh Chunky and I used worsted...


But my friends put them on their kids to show me they fit!


My friends have some cute kids eh?

I'm inspired and am now working on a set of pink hats for a different set of new parents. Ahh baby love!

    Great friends to actually put the things you make on their kids! And those kids are adorable, well done on the gifts.
    And I agree it was work to work this week.

    I wish I had heads of all sizes at hand so I could try hats on as the need to fit came up. But then, I would have to feed all those heads!! Cute kids, cute hats.

    How did I miss this post? My blog feed thingy isn't feeding. I LOVE those troll hats. They remind me of what all the kids were wearing in all the b&w Christmas movies back in the day-my day actually :( .
