Critique my handiwork

I just made this for my niece. Are the flowers weird? I can take them off and put new ones on no problem, I just can't decide if they look odd or not.

Re: Critique my handiwork

  • I need to see this on Molly to be sure.

    They look adorable, silly! You did this all today? You were just talking about starting it last night! Right? Or was I not listening? Anyway, I love it.

  • Thanks! I did most of it today. Baby hats don't take long, so tiny! I hope it fits. It said it's 3-6 month, but I have nothing to go on.

  • It's cute!

  • I think it's adorable, even more so with the flowers.
  • Thanks! I purposely left the flowers small so I didn't end up with something like this:

    I'm pretty sure that hat is a safety hazard.

  • Nicely done Bethie! Its adorable.

  • Well, it's no boob necklace.

    But seriously, it's cute and I'm impressed.

    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz
  • That's really cute.

    I think the flowers are nice. i mean, I assume they are just supposed to be round rings and not have a petal look to them. I like that. Very retro.

  • Cute!  I want to learn how to knit.  I tried to edumacate myself from the internet, but I might as well have been reading chinese.  Who wants to teach me?
  • Thanks, guys! Winged, I could've made the flowers with petals, but I wanted to keep them small. I can make a couple petal flowers tonight to see how it looks. The flowers don't take long at all.

    Shamwow--it's crochet! I'm not very good at knitting, but I think it's because I learned crochet first. The Stich n Biitch "Happy Hooker" crochet book is really good.

  • Bethie, I think it looks great!  I like the flowers as they are.  Very cute.  I'm impressed that you made that and even more impressed that it only took you a day.

  • aww, super sweet.  I like the flowers.  I am hoping I get some handmade stuff from my family for the baby because it just means so much to see someone's hard work for you.  Great job!

  • You guys are so sweet! I'm making the monkey hat next:

  • monkey hats = adorableness.

    I think I'm going to find a cute animal hat (giraffe is in first place so far) for Pickle's "halloween" costume this year.  he/she will be too small for an actual costume and I can use the hat all winter.

  • I love the monkey hat so much.

    ahh!  I'm not trying to be a ruin-y ruiner.  I wasn't planning on buying until after Pickle is born and I'm sitting at home bored (hehehe) on my mat leave.  So I don't HAVE to buy a hat.  Or, maybe my baby will have two heads.  There's always hope.

  • Your baby will get no hat.  I'm going to send you poop in a jar.

  • Damn, I suck at telling the difference between crochet and knit.  Well, I don't know how to do either one.  I have no skillz.

    My MIL just gave me a sewing machine yesterday.  I'll have to figure out how to do that eventually
