Boobie Beanie

I live with a couple who are having a baby in two weeks! My sister showed me a pattern for a beanie that looks like a boobie.

It's a gag when you are breastfeeding your child, you can still show boob.
I thought I'd give it a go as a gift for them - with no idea how large a babies head is and no idea if they would really apply it to the babies head. It's a lot of effort for a joke!

It didn't quite fit the doll I tried it on.

But they have large heads in the family so I think the baby will grow into it soon enough.

Is that a boobeanie?

So your boobie beanie looks totally different to mine! You crocheted it right? The pattern does have sizing, so you can't go too wrong. It's a pity I can't comment here with a picture of my work to date. Well done Natty!

boobeanie it is!

Lauren, I gave up on the pattern. I just started crocheting... So we'll have to compare in person ;-)
I need wool that has more stretch - this was a bamboo cotton with no give.

Carla, not a chance! I can't seem to justify 4 hours of work crocheting something twice. I think you ought to learn and do it yourself. easier than it looks. or meet me somewhere in the world and I'll teach you!!! grasshopper xox
