I’ve been promising you pictures of baby veggie hats for a while. Finally took some for you today.
Aren’t they cute? I love the tops the best.
But I got bored knitting with thin cotton for many rows, so I am taking a break. Cast on a Charleston hat and am planning on casting on a Reyna with some fiber frolic yarn. (All for sale so no guilt.) And getting some pretty wool ready to spin.
Life is good.

My son had a strawberry hat when he was little; they bring back awesome memories. Love the veggies!
ooooh these are so cute! I love the orange one ^^
thanks! I love the curlique, and might add some to some non-veggie hats. 🙂
Those are so cute! I am sure they’ll be popular at sales!
thanks, I hope so!
They are really cute. Love the colors too.
thanks! it was yarn I had in the stash, saved for a completely different project, of course. 😉
The tops are too cute!
thanks! They were fun to do, but I am ready to move on. Of course, if they sell well, I will be making them all summer long. 🙂
These are so super cute, just adorable!!
Thank you! I hope they sell well. 🙂
I am sure they will. If not, start a new trend, and make them popular! 🙂
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!! I’d buy these in a heartbeat. I love the colours, the material, the stalks … everything. Just every single thing. They are such great quality. Aww Salpal … they’ll definitely sell. (Oh, and don’t price them too low. These are worthy of a decent price!)
I’m so envious of your amazing talent, and I love you for it. ~ Cobs. x
thank you! Pricing is a challenge. I did a brief survey the other day among a bunch of grandmothers in the family. One said “I don’t think anyone will buy them, who puts hats on babies in summer?” I ignored her. Another said $10, but the rest put the price in the $20 range which is where I would like to go, that is about three-four times the value of the yarn, so a bit for my time.
I am envious of your talent as well, so I think we are pretty equally talented, just in different ways.
Aw those are adorable. I can just imagine the cute little babies wearing them. So sweet. 🙂
thank you!
I LOVE these – they are so cheerful, I’m sure they will sell like hot cakes!
thanks, I hope so too, even though they are getting boring to make, lol. I think I need to make a whole pack of them, right up to the tops, then do all the cute tops at once as a reward.
That sounds like a good plan 🙂
