Newborn Baby Cable Knit Hat

Newborn Baby Cable Hat pattern is FREE from Crazy Hands. It is such a cute hat and easy to knit too! I used a skein of Bernat Cashmere Natural Blends yarn that I already had, which is a #4 worsted weight yarn. The yarn is 65% acrylic, 30% nylon and 5% cashmere, which makes it feel soft! Perfect yarn for a newborn babe.

I knit this as a gift for a friend of mine who will be a first time grandmother in September. Her daughter is pregnant and having a baby boy. The yarn color I used is good for a boy or girl, so just in case her daughter has another baby later, she could save the hat for a second baby. My friend is a quilter, so I know there will be lots of quilts made for this baby. My friend is not a knitter, so knitting something useful came to my mind to make for baby. No reason to knit a blanket if baby will be cuddled in quilts! Hats are quick and easy to make and will be used in September when baby is born and weather is cooler in the Pacific Northwest.

My garden lady is modeling the hat as I had nothing small enough to model it, lol!

I also had enough yarn leftover to knit a pair of booties too.

Knit Hat with Furry Pompom

I knit this hat 2 years ago and never posted it! I need to look in my drafts more often! I think I donated it as I haven't seen this hat for some time.

I do remember this was a very soft yarn.

I love that the pompom snaps off when it needs washing, which isn't too often.

Camaraderie Knit Beanie with Pompom

This is the 3rd Camaraderie Knit Beanie that I have knit. I got a pompom maker a few months ago and finally was able to try it out and WOW it made a great pompom! This is the largest size and I have 2 smaller sizes too. I wasn't sure how large a pompom the large would turn out to be, so not sure if I should have gone with the medium size or not?

I wanted to use up this ball of yarn I had on hand. I like how it knit the variegated colors.

Just look at that pompom!

Is this too large or just the right size pompom? I'm not sure.

Happy knitting.
