On Saturday, I attended a baby shower for my high school friend, Lindsay. She blogs over
here. She is a professional photographer and her pics are the best I've seen for weddings. Which is why we hired her to be our wedding photographer (but I digress)!
Anyway, she was in town for her baby shower, she knows of my obsessive knitting habit, so how could I not knit something for that little baby boy cooking in her belly?
I knit one of my very fav patterns for babies:
the umbilical cord hat. (rav link)

It's a quick knit, you can use just about any yarn, and the result is just adorable!

I used some Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran for this one. I love that yarn. So soft and warm. Perfect for a wee baby's head.
The pattern is out of
one of the Stitch N' Bitch books. So grab the book, grab some yarn, and in a couple of hours you can have your own perfect baby shower gift! :)
