Bismillahirrahmanirrahim…
The picture above is my daughter. She is modelling the latest hat design i did. ( please ignore the date on the picture cause i’ve written it wrong… Allah Allah….. it should be today, which is, 30 March 2013) and she is soon-to-be 8 months old, alhamdulillah to Allah <3
I was planning to do new design, an easy hat pattern again after the first one (Candy Hat). I’ve got inspired when I looked the workpiece (doily) by one of my student’s grandmother. I really love the stitch she used, so I decided to make one and turn into a hat with my own design, full modification. So, with full of confident, I can say that this is totally a new version! 🙂
So here is the pattern along with the booties pattern.
