My Mom Knit Me a Hat and It Fits Over My Helmet!

      We're going to go to the Motherland for a visit in December, so I thought the Little Mister might need a nice warm hat.  He will definitely still be in the helmet (which has a big hole in the top and doesn't cover his ears), so I knit a hat big enough to go over the helmet.  With any luck, we will get a few years of use out of this hat. 
     My mother-in-law has been visiting for the last week and we decided to go to Yarnivore the other day.  I hadn't been in there in ages and I have to say, they've really spruced the place up!  They have a new, larger store (just across the parking lot from the old one) and they had a lot of great new yarn.  I picked up this skein of Malabrigo Rasta and knit up an Elf Cap in just a couple of hours.  I made the Small/Medium size and I think I have enough yarn left over to make an Extra Small cap for our baby friend who does not have to wear a helmet.

He will definitely need the hat in MN. He looks adorable in it. Of course he looks adorable In everything.

Little Mister is so adorable, even in his little helmet. I hope he doesn't have to wear it too long. Babies have enough things to get adapt to, wearing a full time helmet shouldn't have to be one of them! But he seems to be such a great little trooper. Just want to shower him with kisses, he's so cute!
