Who here can resist cuddling a baby? I know I can't!
They're so soft and smell so fresh, I can't help but want to snuggle them and kiss their rosy little cheeks all day long. Now the question is, what could be better than a soft little newborn?.. Oh, I know! A soft little newborn wearing a super fluffy pom-pom hat!
You see, the moment I discovered this yarn I immediately knew it was meant to create a baby hat. It's probably the softest yarn I own which makes it perfect for keeping a tiny one warm and cozy!
