A small project

I started a small project yesterday - I only have one skein of this yarn, so I had to keep it simple. This is a really cute baby hat, it's sewn into a square so that when a little one wears it the corners stick up like little ears! That's why I refer to it as the "Little Pup" hat. The pattern is so basic and it's knits up so quickly!

Here's how it's done:

One skein of worsted weight yarn and US 8/5.0 mm straight needles

A yarn needle and crochet hook for finishing

Cast on 25 stitches.

Work in stockinette stitch until the piece measures about 12 inches.

Bind off.

Fold the rectangle in half, and crochet the sides closed. Use the yarn needle to weave in your loose ends.

That's it!
