You Can Never Have Enough Hats, Gloves, and Shoes

I'm making a new hat.  For Caleb, who has many hats, but as his mother I remain concerned that he might get cold.  So, another hat.  This one will go in his stocking at Christmas.  

It's another Musselburgh (great hat pattern, this is my fifth one) in fingering weight yarn (which is plenty warm for Texas).  This is Schoppel-Wolle Zauberball Crazy in 1535 Stone Washed.  It ranges from dark navy, all the way to a light denim color, which I thought would work with Caleb's navy jackets.  He doesn't technically have a coat.  When things get coat worthy here, we layer.  It's usually only for 72 hours or so.

Yes, we live in a region that doesn't require a coat, but I still get concerned enough about keeping my son warm that he must have wool hats!  Many, many hats!  I never claimed to be quite right in the head!
