Because obviously I can figure out how to crochet the hat. It is coming out much smaller than I expected and I even used a bigger hook than the pattern called for, so it won't be for Peanut, but for one of the myriad of upcoming babes due in the spring. So far two of them are girls, so I may be able to produce one for each of them. I know it looks a bit like a mess now, but once it is done and beribboned I am confident it will be worthy of gift giving.
Do you think that Aaron could handle navigating the craft store to buy me some more crochet thread? He's been such a trooper the last few days, today especially, so maybe I should spare him the agony of searching for something that could so easily end up being the wrong thing. He's been too good to me to do that to him!
