As promised, here is the Jasmine Inspired hat for my niece. I made it to fit 21" circumference. It seems a little plain, but being 9, I was afraid she wouldn't want it all flashy. It's just simple, which I like.

I have taken a bit of a break from the big hats and have been making hats for the hospital. Its a quick and easy project that you can do at night watching tv (while drinking tea :)) I have a new favourite tea from Davids Tea... It's called Chocolate Macaroon and its a black tea and its amazing! Chocolate and Coconut and I'm not a black tea fan at all. I urge you all to try it!
I will leave you with a few animal photos that make me happy!
Thanks for reading!
