Pattern: Cupcake baby hat
May 15th, 2006 @ 3:33 am
This is a pattern for a hat I knitted last month. The original Cupcake hat was knitted for my new niece’s baby shower. It was such a hit and I liked the hat so much I thought I’d submit it to an online knitzine (this is the submission I mentioned in a recent post). It was rejected, so here it is. At least this way you didn’t have to wait until July to see it.
Download the Cupcake hat here (PDF). The pattern is free but it is “Worthware”; if you like it, please send what you think it’s worth to my PayPal account (address is on the pattern).
Some people have made this hat and posted their own pictures! I will link to photos here, so send me your URL if you post pictures of hats knitted from my pattern:
Here are a few more pics (click on each to see the larger photos at Flickr):

I love this pattern and hat, I am looking for a yarn to use the Jo-Ann Sensations Dolcetto has been discontinued. If you have any suggestions on what other
yarn would work, I would love to hear.
Thanks

I don’t have a specific yarn suggestion, unfortunately. The Dolcetto yarn was a wool/cotton/nylon blend, so you might see if you can find an aran/light worsted yarn with similar fiber content. Someone online is using the Jo-Ann Sensations Tesoro, which looks nice, but it might have a smaller gauge, perhaps. Sorry I don’t have any better ideas at the moment.

In the post above, where it says “Download the Cupcake hat here (PDF).” Click there. You need software that can read PDFs to view it, such as Adobe Reader.
