I bought this last time and used it to make baby hats. It’s not overly soft. The yellow / orange section really takes over something as small as a baby hat, and I didn’t love the color progression, so I ended up snipping it into its constituent colors and making my own combinations. After two skeins, I hate this yarn.
There isn’t enough difference between the yellow and orange, they’re both a bit muddy looking. The photo is brighter than the actual hat.
THAT’S ADORABLE!!!
Thanks!
Two skeins made 21 hats. Might’ve made 22 but I didn’t want to spend two hours to find out that it made 21.9 hats instead of 22.
Edit: 50 stitches, size 8 needles. 24 rows up, K7K2tog, knit next row, K6K2tog, knit next row, K5K2tog, knit next row, K3K2tog, K2K2tog, K1K2tog, K2tog and bind off.
Thank you so much for sharing this! I do chemo caps and donate them to the oncology office. I use the loom knitter. I’m so glad to see what color this ends up thank you.
These look great!!!
Since there’s interest 
You could do fewer rows by alternating knit and purl stitches to do ribbing, but purling makes me frustrated because I haven’t done enough of it, so I just use knit stitch the whole way and let the brim roll.
For the pompoms: I use a 2" round container of Cocoknits stitch markers and do 20 wraps, tie in the middle, and snip the loops.
Your local hospital may have a pattern that they prefer you use - reach out to their donations office or check their website for details.
