sweater hats

So I have this sweater. It's from the closet swap, on the "barely fits" side from the outset, definitely shrunk & felted itself (J Crew, Merino wool) & has a hole in one sleeve. Today I remembered about the Family Sweater Hats project from Handmade Home & succeeded in completing a toddler size for Elijah as well as a newborn size for a babe who is sure to emerge any day now (from a friend's belly, not mine). Beautifully soft & very necessary on this blustery November stint, I now want to go thrifting & make some adult sized skull caps for the whole fam.
