Max's Staircase Tam.
At my baby shower this afternoon, I get a little bag, unmarked, from Entrelac. I open it, and out comes this /very/ hat! She said that her friend Robin made it.
After looking at her store a bit, I find her blog to read up on what she's been up to, and there I see Robin's Bobbin's.
'Is this the Same Robin,' I ask as I surf on over. And lo and behold! Same hat!
Robin, the hat is so uber cute! I will definately be getting pics of Baby in this hat and I'll get them to Entrelac. I know she'll get them to you somehow. ;)
PS: My rollerderby team, the Fallout Brigade, were super happy to see this little army-esque pink barret. I think she'll head up wearing it with the crotchet'ed little roller skates she was given by Pistol Kitten. :) I almost can't wait for her to be born so I can start playing dress up with her!!!
Much Love,
Moose aka Entrelac's baby sister
That is darling. I wanted to also wish you a belated birthday. Mine was fairly uneventful, other than Jason coming to visit.
