Since we have had the baby, Suketu's crafting requests have been on the back-burner. The situation really got to him when Ms. Anya showed up in her brand new, very silly, very funky hat. Suketu would leave the house every morning saying--I have a cold head.
So here you go. Both babies with hats on. Suketu's hat is a slouchy version of the original pattern (details below). The personalized "S" is a special request--initially he wanted something like, Anya's Dad. Cool Dad. Suketu, the Dad. You can see we heavily negotiated. Happy Winter, Mr.
Anya's hat--I saw this yarn when I did not have Anya, and my thoughts were--what the hell?! Who would ever knit anything with that. Now that I have a kid, I totally get it. It has a little bit of something, for every kind of child in you.

I love those hats! Hers is crazy crayola and his is monogramed!! Great pictures too:)
Great hats! I have a similar variegated yarn in my stash that I made a blanket and a hat for my son with. I still have a ton of that yarn left and have no idea what to do with it.
Love that Turn A Square pattern for men. Made one for my dad and he actually requested another one!
Great hats! Since I am a relatively new knitter, I'm still afraid of dpns and hat patterns, but these are very cool!
Oh they look so sweet together with their awesome hats!
The dad hat is very nicely executed! They are such a cute couple that dad and that daughter, sweet!!
