Knitted Baby Hats

This is another round of knitted hats for the babies in the NICU at a local hospital. It's a good evening project to sit in a comfy chair and knit these little hats, and the nurses in the NICU are so appreciative, not to mention the parents of the babies. One Sunday in the New Baby section of the local newspaper, there was a hospital photo of a baby boy wearing one of my hats. Somehow that made it seem even more important to continue with this project.

Karen,
I knit blankets for the NICU here in Atlanta. I started 3 years ago after my husband passed away. It is a wonderful use of that time at night for me. Thanks for your generosity.

Wonderful little hats. Finding something in stores for tiny little babies can be a challenge. I'm sure your knitted creations are much appreciated!
