Using some stash yarn and stash buttons to make this hat for my daughter. Thanks to DH, she has become a huge fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins (not that she watches hockey) and therefore loves all things penguiny. Now both of my kids have little penguin hats for the winter:)

Emma was so excited to wear this hat. She kept it on indoors for quite a while before taking it off. Unfortunately, she had a nasty cold when I took the pictures so she usually doesn’t look quite this droopy.
