Top This! DMC Toddler Giraffe Hat



I bought this kit the other day at Hancock Fabric, and it turned out to be a very quick project (a couple of hours) and very cute.

You knit the hat and the topper is tied on with the attached ribbons, through a rubbery "washer" on the inside of the hat.

I had enough yarn to do almost 2 toddler-size hats, and I finished the second one with a cabled cotton yarn I had on  hand from a Prada style handbag I made several years ago.  I use a pompon on the top of it, and will donate it.

    It is a cute kit! My mom made the monkey hat for my son for Christmas this year.

    Aren't those just the cutest hats going? my LYS has the kits, but my son nixed the project. Should've asked the daughter-in-law :-(

      Absolutely. You could do one anyway, or I thought about getting a different stuffed animal and doing 'surgery' on it, as I was not terribly crazy about most of their options other than the giraffe. Maybe if you found the right mascot it would be okay. Does he have a favorite team or anything?
