New pattern - floppy sun hat!

It was time to design new summer hat for Sophie. I used 100% cotton yarn and like very much how it turned out. I made wider brim than usually and added small flower. Though Sophie didn't want to be a model on the day when these photos were taken and was trying to take it off at any cost. Maybe she didn't like the color?! :-) Oh, these girls...

Cluster Hat!

I designed this hat quite long time ago, but didn't have time to finish the pattern. So, finally here it is! I made it using cotton yarn so that Sophie can wear it when the weather gets windy or when it is colder in the evenings. By the way - Sophie loves her hat! She is putting it on by herself and wears it even at home... :-) together with my heels... :-) Oh, these girls...  

Miracle Earflap Hat...

With first cold days I had to fight with my little girl about wearing the hat! She just hated all beautiful hats I made for here, with tears in her eyes she was immediately taking them off and throwing away as far as possible. After she was trying to cover her ears with her little hands as she was understanding that something was wrong and it is quite cold now. But anyway - every time I was putting the hat back, she did the same thing. My little boy was doing the same at her age and at that time we found a compromise with hat-hoodie. This time it didn't work. I was almost ready to buy a hat made from tissue, thinking that maybe she will like it more. But then I decided to make last try. I bought this beautiful alpaca yarn (I used it in 4 strands to get it as worsted weight yarn) which is incredibly soft I made a new hat for my little girl. And OH, MIRACLE happened. She loves it! She even wears it at home! :-))) After first try (as I wanted check the size) I quickly took it off thinking she will cry again, but no - she was angry I took it off and for the whole evening she was proudly walking around the house wearing her new hat! :-) Well, that is why I call it Miracle Hat! :-) I hope your children will like it as well!

Thinking of Autumn Hat!

Rainy and windy weekend we had here made me think about Autumn. I love it. I love when suddenly after hot days you can breath easier, you feel wind and fresh air, smell of falling leaves... I love to wear again my cardigans, scarves, coats. I love to dress my children in warm and comfy clothes to protect them and to make them feel even more loved. And here is the result of all these feelings - Thinking of Autumn Hat. :-)

Pattern is available here!

By the way, my daugther is wearing her Sleeveless Cardigan. Pattern is available here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/66477897/crochet-and-knit-pattern-pdf-file I simply made it in one color instead of using 3 different colors.

two new designs...

While my little monkeys are both sleeping after playing outside I have a minute to write a short post about my two new designs:

Daisy Braided Strap Booties! Matching headband is here!

And Simple Flower Sun Hat!

Both patterns are easy to make!

I hope you are having wonderful Summer! :-)

Headwear for my little girl...

Well, lately I have big inspiration to design hats, headbands... in other words - headwear! Here are my newest designs:

Shell Motif Hat

Summer Sun Hat
Cherry Blossom Headband
Daisy Braided Headband

Ladies Hat Hoodie

Do you have problems choosing a hat which fits you well? If yes, then this is a right thing you should make for yourself. I always had and still have this problem. Hats just don't fit me, maybe only berets... After I made a hat hoodie for my little one, and I had some requests about designing similar one for ladies, I thought - it is a great idea! And here it is! It is so comfy, looks great and for sure will protect me in windy days here.
Pattern is very easy, has many photos and detailed instructions. Enjoy! :-)

Hat hoodie...

Yesterday I listed for sale new pattern - Hat Hoodie!
Lately my little one didn't want to put any of his hats, and every time while being outside we had to fight. It was till I made for him this hat-hoodie! It is so comfortable for him and for me that now we will not change it for anything else. It covers very well his head and ears, keeps him warm, but it doesn't disturb him as it was with hats, because his face is opened. He doesn't need anymore scarf and every time he takes off his hood it is still there, and not on the ground or hidden somewhere...
I made also second one in pink and now you can buy it here!

Designer Sample Sale

I just opened new section in my Etsy shop - Designer Sample Sale, where I am going to sell my creations for very reasonable price. I always try to give my booties away as gifts, but sometimes it happens that some my creations stay in my wardrobe and sadly wait for their little owners.
Here are items I just listed, but many others will come with time!

Very shortly about new designs...

I just realized that I didn't post my newest designs here...
Well, here they are - Baby Boy Hat and Baby Boy Scarf! It is absolutely wonderful set for a boy. I made it for my little son Alex and it seems he likes it! He was so proud especially about his new scarf that wanted to wear it even at home...
