Here's a little set that I knit up for a family friend after I learned she gave birth to a little girl the other day. I love these baby patterns; they are simple and sweet. They are basically my "go to" patterns for baby hats and mitts. I used US 7, 4.5 mm circulars using the magic loop technique.
This was also the first time I have worked with two different colors. It was much easier than I had anticipated, and after watching a quick tutorial on joining two different balls, I was ready to go. I used Sugar n' Cream 100% cotton yarn, and the colors are Pink Rose and Buttercream.
I like to use 100% cotton whenever working on baby projects as the yarn is very soft. I wouldn't want to use anything other than this as these items will be very close to the baby's skin.
