Baby boy hat and loafer set

My friend at work is having her first child -- a boy! -- due this summer. Ah, babies ... so much fun to craft for. :-)

To start things off, I made the Simply Spiky Hat and Loafers pattern designed by Britta Graham.

On the cover

Hey! It only took me 6-1/2 months to notice that a Yarncraft by Susan hat (that's me!) made the cover of the Appeal-Democrat's annual "New Neighbors" special section gracing the sweet newborn head of Leticia and Eric's grandson, Jacob. *woo-hoo!* Go me! LOL 🙂
