So I’ve almost finished this pattern. I’ve written out the toddler pattern I’ve just got to finish the baby version and take some more pictures. Pattern should be up sometime this week. Gosh I love crochet! NOTE: The finished hat has pompoms on the ends of the ties. Alas, someone was inpatient and didn’t tie…
