Lady K, I just drooled on my keyboard!

Thank you, Lady Catherine.

Just finished crocheting this tricorn hat for my 5 month old.  I already had the yarn and figured it would be cute and cheap, since he'll only wear it once or twice at LARF in a few weeks.

[Lady Rebecca]

He is adorable!

[Sabrina Black]

Thank you!

[LadyFae]

Ahh! That (and he) is too incredibly cute!

With cheeks so soft, only a Grandma like me can love.

AS they say in Minnesota, "Oh for cute!"

OMG!!!  That is too adorable!!!  I totally need the pattern.  My friend's daughter would look amazing in it.

Ok, here are the hats I've been decorating for AHE at TRF this year... one for my daughter and one for the friend who will be coming with us.  My daughter wasn't planning on having a hat, but our friend showed up one day with this cheap faux distressed leather look tricorn hat from the Halloween Store for her, and it actually had pretty good lines, so I just ran with it...  LOL  (sorry for the blur... but it was 4am when I took the pics, and the tripod was in my daughter's room attached to her telescope at the time)

N's hat, front view with Humphrey the Rennie Fairy hamster riding in his spot, along with one of the favors I made for TRF last year...


Right side, with favors my daughter was given at RenDezvous this year at Scarby...


Back view, more favors...


Left side, with the RenDezvous pin designed by Lady Joyce Ann, who so very sweetly gifted it to my daughter (sealing her place in my heart forever)!  I found the pistol pin online, and the rose is an antique silver lapel pin I've had for years.  I couldn't resist the whole Guns-n-Roses look...  


The gold studs gave it a bit more bling, and the scalloped trim was a Hancocks Fabrics score that just set off the whole thing perfectly...  Well, my daughter loves it, at least!  

Here's a front shot of the hat I did for the friend who brought us the first one.  When she saw what I did to it, she decided she wanted her own, and showed up on my doorstep with big 'ole puppy dog eyes...    heheh


Aaaaand finally... the hat pins I made when I was finished, just because I was inspired...

[Sabrina Black]

Wow, those look great!

[Rani Zemirah]

Thanks, Sabrina!    I had lots of fun with them!  Looks like you're going to have the littlest pirate this year, though... and what a cutie he is in that awesome tricorn!!! 

[Sabrina Black]

Thank you!  He's my pride and joy
