Ta-da! I’ve finished Alana’s crochet beanie! (Here’s the work-in-progress). It’s a lovely little pattern, and I’m so pleased I finished. Alana’s has a little bit of room to grow in it, but that’s fine — it can still get chilly over the next couple of months. If you’re interested in making one for a little person in your life, you can find the pattern in the Paton’s Retro Babes pattern book.
