If this knitted Preemie Hat looks like one I posted before, 
it is created from the same skein of variegated yarn. Wouldn't it be fun for twin babies for

Revised Knitted Preemie Hat For Neo Natal Unit - Day 267 A Block A Day Challenge

No automatic alt text available.
My local Neo Natal Unit prefers these tiny
 knitted Preemie Hats without the pompom,
 so I revised
my pattern to create a pompom type tip
 that is part of the creation so it is more secure. 
I usually make 3 a month since they are quick.
I hope you'll give them a try too. 
Revised Knitted Preemie Hat

2 pair of US Size #7  - 18 inch circular needles 
( double pointed needles can be substituted)

Go Panthers!! Knitted Preemie Hats

I'm not a football fan per se but I do sew and/or create
Knitted  Preemie Hats for the local Neo Natal Unit  a lot of while hubby enjoys the games.
And although I go to a Super Sew Party on Super Bowl Sunday with my friends,
I will be checking in on the score from time to time.
I do live in North Carolina you know!
I plan to turn in these hats ASAP so some new Daddy can share his football 
love with a new little one.

Fluffy Pink Knitted Preemie Hat

With all the snow, there's more 
time to play in the yarn.
I'm not sure how I feel about this extra fluffy yarn
but I'm guessing some Mommy will love it on 
her little Preemie Baby in the local Neo Natal Unit.

Italian Gedifra Velour Yarn Preemie Hat


While paring down my gleaned yarn stash,
I came across this unique and beautiful yarn. 
Italian made Gedifra Velours is very soft and easy to use for 
this newest Knitted Preemie Hat for the local Neo Natal Unit.
that is quick and brightens a sometimes long  hospital stay.
