I finished the hat for my friend’s 5 year old grandson who has a blood cancer.  It is the 2X2 ribbed hat from the 5 Easy Pieces – Knit Newborn Hats.   I used the Yarn Bee Soft and Sleek yarn from Hobby Lobby.  It’s very soft and was the blue and green my friend said were his favorite colors :).  I added an extra 10 stitches to the pattern and about 12 more rows because he’s not a newborn and I knew it needed to be a little larger.  I tried it on an 9 year old and tho a little snug for him it should be perfect for a 5-7 year old.  I hope he will like it.

I’m thinking about what my next project should be, honestly tho  I should be cleaning, I’d rather be knitting :P.  I’ll post when I make up my mind and start that next project.
