Beary Cute Beanie

Now that I am allowing myself to buy yarn again for new projects I wanted to make sure I was still using up some of my stash yarn as well.  So, I have decided that every time I make a project from new yarn I have to make a project from stash yarn as well.  This is what I made after making my wedding bolero.
Beary Cute Beanie

Pattern: Osito Infant Bear Hat
Yarn: mystery 8 ply from my stash
Hook: 4mm (G)
Start/End Date: 28th September/2nd October

Beary Cute Beanie

This was the quickest beanie to crochet and it turned out super cute.  I crocheted the beanie in one sitting then left it hanging about for a few days before I did the ears.  If I did it all in one hit it probably only would have taken a few hours.  All the babies in the family are probably going to be too big to wear this when winter rolls around again so it has found its way into the gift box.  Hopefully someone has a little baby around winter that I can gift it to.  I was thinking if someone has a girl I can add a little bow near one of the ears to make it into a girl bear.

    This is so damn awesome! I want one for myself, but I have a pretty big head ;) I've been wanting to get into crocheting but I am already so time poor. Maybe during my holidays I'll give it a go! Any suggestions for a beginner? Books, sites, or patterns? xx

    Absolutely the cutest. I have always found crochet so difficult! Hope you find a baby to wear it :)

    what a great idea about how you use your yarn stash. I had a serious addiction until about a year ago we went overseas and I had to make do! Coming over from Blogtoberfest.
