Cabled Baby Hat - Knitting

Cabled Baby Hat - Knitting





Love the outcome for the baby hat. I wanted to try doing cable and challenge myself to this easy pattern from the Lion Brand yarn website. The title is Chill In the Air Cap.

Materials: 
- Ivy Wool Cream 100gm
- Circular Knitting Needle 5.5mm, 120cm (take long enough to make it easier to use Magic Loop method)
- Cable Stitch Holder
- Stitch Marker
- Blunt Needle


I should have made a pompom to tie on top of the hat. It would make it a lot more cuter.

Cable technique requires lots of yarn even though you are making it for a baby sized hat. About a few grams left for the yarn. If you are making for an adult hat, maybe you need about 1 and half balls for the yarn. About 150gm of the yarns needed.

It took me about two days to finish it. I knitted the hat during my leisure time.

Knitting - Baby Doll Dress

Knitting - Baby Doll Dress



Baby doll dress knitted using Milk Cotton Series (MCS), 4.0mm knitting needle. I made a gauge swatch first to see whether it will fits perfectly with the baby doll.

Love the outcome. The color for the Milk Cotton Series MCS yarns are Light Pink and Magenta. 


Knitting - Hats

Knitting Hat

Knitted this hat for 5 year old size using 5.5mm knitting needle Peony Polyester yarn, Green Leaves.




Baby Hat for 6-12 months size using Milk Cotton Aran Yellow, using 6mm circular knitting needle 120cm. I used Magic Loop method. Easier and faster results. No need to use Double Pointed Needle anymore. I made this for my friend's little boy.
