I decided these two baby hats needed a little something more so I decided to do some surface embellishments.
The hat on the left I knit while on my trip, I added a series of circles to the surface using running stitch, satin stitch and chain stitch. For the top I crocheted a little flourish -- just chain about 15 stitches or so and then double back on that row to the center where you start another row. The yarn is Rowan 4-ply Soft.
The hat on the right I had posted previously and it had been done for a while but it wasn't quite cute enough. I crocheted a couple of circles using different colors of yarn that added an accent. I think it looks so much better now.
