My First Mother's Day 2011

Happy Mother's Day to all mums, now including me! David made me pancakes for breakfast with a scrummy berry sauce, and Thomas did his bit by being very cute!

All the beanies I've made so far are too small for Tom, yet it's starting to get cold and I think he needs to wear one. So I made this one this morning, using 100% Australian merino wool and a 4.5mm hook. I usually use the 4mm hook but the bigger hook made it slightly bigger, I also added an extra increasing round. So this hat is a bit on the big side, but he'll grow into it! Now he can keep warm in this cold weather, and I'm feeling like making him some more beanies now I know his size!
