Soft little baby heads need something to cover them and keep out the cold! This cap was knit from yarn I spun and plied from the remainder of a Tussah silk roving I used for Mom's Elizabethan hose. I suppose it is a fingering weight yarn and I have plenty left to knit a pair of thumbless baby "mittens" to match. This pattern comes from the book "Homespun Handknit". The hat has a star knit into the lace which is begun at the top and center of the hat with the lace increases branching outwards. The sides are then knit in a straight lace and ended with a few rows of ribbing. And you can never see too much baby neck, now can you?
