Baby Hat For Abby...

I wanted to knit a hat for baby Abby(my cousins new little one) to use up some of the wool I had left over from the blanket I made...
I wanted an easy but effective pattern and I found one here: Baby Hat on Two Needles - I kept looking for patterns and finding them knitted up on circular needles, I wanted something simple using just 2 needles and the pattern I've linked was perfect.

Here is my attempt (I even added two crochet flowers which I did myself...): 

I'd do another, I started this last night (probably just after tea at about 7pm) and finished it this afternoon :0) 
I hope you like my little project...

5X5 blanket all stitched up...

I've so far knitted enough squares to make a 5X5 blanket...and I've stitched it together...here it is:

I have made a slight change in my design - I am no longer making it 7X9 but instead 7X7 with a crocheted border...I do have a photo of almost all my knitted squares for my 7X7 blanket but as yet I have not stitched together the outer squares...(as you can probably tell)

I have (as you can see from the photo) another 6 squares to knit, then I can start stitching my outer layer of squares onto the 5X5 blanket...then I'll almost be done...only the crocheted border to do...I'm very excited!!!
Thanks for looking if you have done. I should be finished my blanket this week maybe? Then I can go back onto the HAED...

Middle of Baby Blanket

I have finished all the middle squares for the blanket...
My cousin gave birth to a baby girl on the 12th & her name is Abby...
So I have got another shade of pink and I am making the majority of the blanket in cream and pink BUT wanted to use the other blue and pink squares as didn't want to waste them...
So here is the centre of the blanket as it stands at the moment...
I hope you like my progress so far...
I have another 16 cream and pink squares that I haven't photographed yet...
