Recently, it seems babies are being born all around me. Not having any kids myself, I don't really get much opportunity to make baby related items. I've been having fun with the baby bonnet, a cute baby staple. I would say my mother agrees with me since she made Baby Professor Pincushion several.
I've made about four of these adorable bonnets in the last month and I love each and every one of them. I admit that they're hard to part with, even to babies. Little bonnets with little ears, who can resist? I added the ears because I figure that baby animals were the only thing that could compete with baby humans on the scale of cuteness. Why not combine the two? Sometimes, I can't help being a softie and say, "awww." I would say this bonnet pattern would fit a baby 6-11 months old.

ha! that’s how it is for me too. so many projects, so little time.
OOOhhhhh. I like this…I have a pile of projects but might add this to my list!
I like the ears on this bonnet. I see many different variations that can be made from this basic pattern. For example just rounding the ears rather than having pointed ears can make baby look more like a little baby bear!
