My favorite hat pattern of the year-Bubblegum beanie

Wandering in IDEA Store, I found Inside Crochet, a magazine from the UK. I bought it because it has an attractive hat pattern I really want to make. You may buy the pattern from Ravelry.

Here are several of hats I have made for 5 days.
This pink hat I made with Lion Brand Baby First yarn. The pattern requires really chunky yarn and this yarn is really good, chunky but soft. The hat is cabled, reversible and stretchy. I call it "2 in 1" and "one size fits all" hat.

The cable

The reversible side

I like this twisting cable here, an embellishment made during the hat making process. I don't need to make any flowers to attach on it.

I made this hat as a Christmas gift for my friend's daughter. I made another red hat for another friend's daughter too. This time I used Hobby Lobby yarn "I love this cotton". I combined 2 strands of worsted weight to make it, the result was the hat also looks chunky. I love the color, too. Red is Christmas color, right?

The hat also fits my head.

Yesterday, 24 Dec 2013, I went to Walmart and bought 2 skeins of Lion Brand Hometown USA, Honolulu Pink yarn. The yarn is bulky so I worked more quickly and tried it on. I ask my husband to take a picture of me wearing that so pink hat. I have never tried any pink things before.


Love this hat pattern so much!
