i love that she chose purple for him. it always irks that there are some colors thought to just be for girls or just for boys. so silly!

It's a beautiful hat, but I think it was crocheted, and not knitted 😉

aww, thanks everyone! it is indeed crocheted, and i used Sylvie Damey's Baby Altay pattern:

Beautiful hat! And I totally agree with you – I put my son in purple without hesitation.

that is a gorgeous hat! and yes, assigning gender to color (or certain animals and plants) is ridiculous. purple is for everyone! <3

such a sweet little hat.
i agree about silliness around baby boy and baby girl colors.
my baby girl looks great in green and blue and brown 😉
