It is simply THE cutest hat I've ever seen!
Even though they were actually visiting this past weekend, I went ahead and cast on for the project. I had some Swish bulky from Knit Picks left over from another project. It is a washable, 100% wool, so it seemed ideal. I started Friday night, knit a little on the hat Saturday evening and completed it Sunday afternoon in a couple of hours. (All total, knitting time was around 3-4 hours....I think.)
Here's the completed project:
. . . and atop a real head (though, granted, a head larger than the one it is intended for!!)
Chris Church's design rocks! It was easy to knit (and fun too!) It only takes about 135 yards of bulky weight yarn (1 skein!!) and a U.S. #10 24" circular needle. I think the wee kiddies (and their mom & dad) will like it!
Happy Knitting!

I agree, this is a really cute hat and I will be making and giving a few away as gifts myself.
