I made the sweater first because I didn't know how much yarn I had to work with.
For the sweater:
I used a single strand of Red Heart in Cherry Chip.
I used a J hook.
For the Hat:
I used a double strand of Cherry Chip. I thought I had enough to finish it but, I did not.
I used a K hook.
To finish the hat, I used a double strand of Red Heart White. I then went back and put a single row of sc around the sweater so that it would match. I think it came out ok. I will go back and make a hat for the first sweater I made. I think I have enough yarn for that.
These will be going to the VNS of NY.
I need to go and put the thumbs in the mittens but, first I need to get some cleaning done today. I just have to get motivated. lol
I hope you have a wonderful weekend whatever you have planned.
Until next time...

Looks like the pattern I like so much, have made about a doz using different yarn and needles to get various sizes for newborns and smaller ones for preemies. But, I didn't know Bev also had the pattern, the one I'm using is from Bundles of Love, copy righted by Beth back in Oct of 2004.
The other day I made the comment when I saw a pattern for an interesting square that I thought I had seen it before. Someone was trying out this "new" pattern and someone said they had just designed it and it was copy righted. I beginning to think there really aren't many new patterns out there, unless someone does an extensive search how would they know?
Anyway, I agree this is a great pattern, I've been wanting to try and experiment with it to see how many stitches to add to make it larger than infant etc.

Another beauty Bunny. I just love the color and I think your choice of the white was perfect. The babies that receive them are going to look adorable.
