So what would you say if I told you I went to a posh little boutique and fell in love with these hats?  And then went and bought them for Christmas?

But seriously – how could you not just melt over these?  The yarn was so soft, the colors just perfect…

 So yeah, I went a little crazy.

But wasn’t it so worth it?!

Okay, you should know me better than to think I’d splurge at an artsie little store for ANYTHING unless it was 95% off – even these yummy hats.  Matter of principle.

No, I didn’t find them at a “posh little boutique.”  I doubt such adorable hats *could* be found in the perfect sizes, styles, and in coordinating colors.   And if they could, I’m certain I wouldn’t afford them.  These wonderful little works of art were crochetted with love by my dear, darling mother.  Isn’t she amazing?!

    SUCH cute hats! I love the flower on Cinderella’s. You must tell you mother that my mother did the same thing for her kids this Christmas – crocheted us all hats! :) No wonder they’re best friends.

  11. [...] now I shouldn’t have to tell you who made the hat, should I?  And who should totally have an Etsy [...]
