The Hooks
I found that my Odyssey crochet hooks from Furls worked really well with this yarn. The weave is very loose and can catch with some hooks especially wooden. The yarn slid with ease with the odyssey hook and the handle prevents my hands from cramping. I spend hours crocheting every day and have found these hooks to be a lifesaver for me.

This adorable little chunk is my nephew and I was so excited to make this crochet baby hat pattern for him. He’s 4 months and just fits into the 3-6 month size. He has a large head for his age so make sure to follow my size chart and measure first.
