NEW PATTERN: Puffalump Baby Hat!

Puffalump Hat

I'm sure you've heard by now that the mastermind behind the wildly successful Stitch N' Bitch book series, the brilliant Debbie Stoller, has teamed up with Coats & Clark (aka Red Heart) to produce her own line of yarn! Available at a Joann store near you, Stitch Nation, by Debbie Stoller are 3, "100% Natural, 100% Affordable" yarns made to order for those of us who chant, "Knitting or BUST!"

Me & Deb at Last Weekend's Craft Super Show in Anaheim, CA

Thanks to the folks over at Coats I was able to play a bit with a couple of the new yarns which I used to design Puffalump, a baby tam with a crocheted body and knitted, brim & crown. I love this hat and am thrilled to be able to offer the pattern to you today in both my shop and Ravelry, for only $5!

  5. Thanks! Clo's wearing the smaller size. She has a big ol' head (95th percentile!), but the there's a lot of give in this pattern so babes can wear it for a long time. :)

  6. I can not get over how cute Clover is!!! And I would have never made that hat until I saw how cute it looked on her! Now I've got a list a mile long of babies I want to make it for!
