While at Creative University, I picked up several orders for cupcake hats!  Here is Bren's granddaughter wearing her hat.  Isn't she just the most adorable, sweet model ever?

I added beads to this hat, and have since picked up some really cute, shimmery seed beads that look incredible on the hats!  They sparkle in the light, and best of all - they aren't a choking hazard.  I pre-string all the beads before knitting, so unless the hat is cut with scissors there isn't any way for the beads to fall off or be pulled off.

I have 2 more cupcake hat orders to fill, and then I'll try and put some up in my etsy store!  Email me if you are interested in purchasing one for your little lovey!

Cupcake Hats

So it only took 2 days, but my Ravelympics knitting got put on hold for a few days when I found a pattern for CUPCAKE HATS!!!  With a few modifications, I whipped up these two hats for my girls for Valentine's day.

Here is the baby size on RuRu...

I love her little gummy smile!

And here is the big kid size on Sammie:

The cupcake sisters:

I'd like to find some larger beads to thread on the yarn and add as "sprinkles".  All of the beads I usually use for knitting are too small.  So at some point I'm going to have to trek down to the bead store in Greenwood.

Today I'm back to my Ravelympics knitting.  I did finish a pair of bubble socks, and made more progress on my shawl.  I'm so excited because the designer of the shawl, Stephen West, is coming to a local yarn store in March!  Just might have to go meet him in person!

NOTE:  Yes! I am taking orders for these hats.  From the time of posting this I have 4 orders, so the wait will be approximately 2 weeks from the time of ordering to shipment.

Baby sizes will be $32 (or $38 with beads), kids will be $36 (or $42 with beads).  I don't have any hats with beads knitted so far, but they are strung on the yarn before knitting, so not a choking hazard.  I will try to post one with beads soon so you can see.

When ordering, you need to include size desired, "frosting" color preference, and if you want the bead "sprinkles" or not.
