Do you have a favorite hat or blanket?

By
My favorite blanket I am working on is this baby one featuring  the new Annes Geddes baby yarn!

This is the star stitch pattern 

Another unfinished blanket I have it the wave one! Anyone else start one and then get excited about other projects???

Do you know that Stitch and Unwind has a Stitch and Share event going on right now asking you to share your favorite blankets and/ or hats?

Here are some of my favorite hats I have made that are not from patterns here on crochet chiq! Some I made up and the star stitch ones are from The Crochet Geek





The first hat I ever tried to make with out a pattern and just looking at a picture!

These hats took forever but I loved making them!

I made this 3 years ago for my sons 1st birthday!

bumble bee hat

once I made one panda hat everyone wanted one I  think I made over 15 one summer when my church did pandamania for vbs

My oldest drew a picture of what he wanted his minion hat to look like 



this is my 4 year old's favorite hat at the moment. he wears it all the time!
