A good friend just had a beautiful baby girl! The baby is the newest addition to our "POD" (this is what we call our Monday night dinner club). So I thought she could use an outfit to help welcome her to the group... get it? Pea pod? I found the pattern for the pod at Ruby Knits... I knew it was perfect the moment I saw it! I used a different pattern for the hat than she did. I just wanted a simple roll top hat. I adapted a patter from Knitting on the Net Materials: Lion Brand Yarn – Hometown USA – Oklahoma City Green (Or any super bulky weight yarn) Size 15 circular needle, set of large double pointed needles yarn needle Cast on 30 stitches Switch to circular needles and put a marker after the last st Knit in St st (knit every rnd) for 6" (I ended up purling all the sts because they ended up backwards on the circular needles) Crown Decreases: Round 1: k6, k2tog; rep around Round 2: knit Round 3: k5, k2tog; rep around Round 4: knit Round 5: k4, k2tog; rep around Round 6: knit Round 7: k3, k2tog; rep around Round 8: knit Cont in this manner until 3 sts rem. Change to double points when sts no longer fit. K2tog around until 3 sts remain. Work I-Cord for 2 to 3 inches. Draw yarn through the 3 sts on needle and pull through center of stem. *The whole outfit turned out a little bigger than I had planned... I bet she'll be able to wear it around 3 months or so. You might want to adjust the pattern if you'd like it smaller! Thanks for stopping by!
