Moss Stitch Trim Hat, all done
Pattern: no pattern, just some strange guestimations based on gauge and other baby hat patterns
Yarn: Jo Sharp Silk Road Aran in Quartz, Alabaster and Ricepaper
Needles: a set of Bamboo DPNs and a 40cm Addi circular, possibly 4.5mm

I finally attached that pom pom. This time I put the two ends through stitches either side of the hole at the top, rather than through the hole itself. I then tied them together as tightly as I could and wove in the ends. It is sitting much more firmly atop the hat than the first attempt. And it goes beautifully with the Big Bad Baby Blanket, if I do say so myself (the hat that is, not just the pom pom).

How beautiful! I adore the hat and think you should try to write out a pattern. I’m no pattern writer, but I’ll attempt anything someone else has designed. Beautiful! Oh, and if you can think of the homeopathic stuff for the head banging, that would be great. I am getting a little concerned that maybe my son has headaches or something and that’s how he’s dealing with them.
