The only odd thing about the pattern is it seems designed to sell extra yarn. The pattern called for two balls of Wool Cotton, and I didn't even come close to using one whole ball. The design at the back ends up looking quite impressive, I think, but is easy to do.
Other knitting: A bit more on Picovoli.
Reading: Still on Bloodsucking Fiends.
Writing: I worked a bit on the Novel, and I'm back to Chapter Four today.
Note: Thanks to MOYA, who apparently wants us all to go to Costa Rica (which is awesome; I went there for my honeymoon), I now have comments moderation turned on.

I LOVE that bonnet and have been wanting to make it. You have totally inspired me. It looks adorable! Happy baby!
That is by far the cutest bonnet ever. I think I'm going to have to start knitting for babies that don't even exist yet.
Down with the comment spam! I have someone who really wants me to be a mystery shopper.
That. Is. The. Cutest. Thing. Bravo!
The bonnet is so cute! That's so funny you have a squash modelling!
Lovely bonnet! That's one lucky butternut!
It's adorable! And I love Bitsy too. ;)
I bought yarn to make the bonnet for my boyfriend's new niece and was suspicious when I looked at the yarn requirement...glad to know it doesn't take more than one skein.
What a cute little baby! Can I give it a squash? Har Har Har! Ooo, I should be shot. I do like that bonnet. It's very pretty.
I wish I had the W&G movie. I love them - Gromit is my hero.
I had some creep who said he wanted me to post a picture of my bouncing betties on his website. What a perv. I bet he was sorry he posted it when he found out I kept my comment moderation turned on AND when I emailed him back with a nasty note.
Lovely! Looks so soft! Great job!
How strange, I've just made the same hat. It looks gorgeous in that yarn.
I love that whole book and have made a few things out of it.
Yay, that's one of my favorite projects for new girly babies! If you don't have the other ball of Wool Cotton earmarked for another project, might I recommend the Dainty Baby Booties in the same book? They turned out really cute as a set.
Wow, that design on the back is beautiful! Now my vegetables are clamoring to be dressed so daintily.
That is so interesting about the overestimation of the yarn! I think you may have just uncovered a vast yarn industry conspiracy...you could do the expose right here on your blog!
