Mom is a bit obsessed with lambs, and I thought, why not make something super cute? I'd found this pattern from Sweet Kiwi Crochet on Pinterest. It looked easy enough so I ordered the pattern and Kandice was great! I had that pattern in my email within 2 hrs of placing the order.
Now THAT is customer service! Thanks Kandice!
The instructions come in (5) pattern sizes and is super easy to work up.

hanging out with girlfriends! Can't get easier than that.
I used Caron Soft yarn, which is a soft, acrylic yarn, size (4) and an I hook.

Once I had the Hat finished, I needed a sweater, and once again headed over
to Ravelry for inspiration. You need to subscribe to see the patterns but once

you do, you'll be glad you did! The best thing about Ravelry, is once you purchase
a pattern, it stays in your 'library' forever, and you can pretty much access it from anywhere.

This pattern arrived I love this combination of "Ribbing" and Wattle stitching.
It's so simple and sweet.
And it had perfect texture to match the Little Lamb hat too!

The Ribbing, and the wattle stitch I seriously did in one night. The arms were a little complicated, but once I figured it out, it came together nicely.
Crochet Ribbing is basically a crochet stitch in the back loop only.
After you work a few rounds, the mock ribbing begins to appear.
Really there is a ton you can do with this technique.
Anyway, I posted these sweet pics on Facebook and the next thing you know,
I had two orders for them:)

How adorable is this?! I love the hat with the sweater it's just so cute and cuddly! I found you from made by you Monday.
That little hat is the greatest! Love the sweater too. I bet there were lots of oohs and aahs over that gift.
Ladies thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and comment on my hat. I know it is just TOO Cute to pass up! It also has spawned a TON of orders! I can't believe it!
@LA - I don't necessarily "buy" patterns either, but I find that some of them it's perfect to have someone ELSE do the math work and then I can just hook ya know?
@Katrine - thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. You're so sweet to take the time. I hope you come back!
@Marti - new momma is STILL gushing over it :) That makes me happy!
