I Can't Believe I Did This!

Last fall, I got a request from my daughter to make a special gift for her longtime friend.  I told her I would give it a try, but it was nothing I had ever made before.  Then I found out that another of her friends would like the same thing!  This is a pretty odd thing to start with and then a request for 2 was kind of bizarre!  I needed to figure out how to make a little tiny santa hat.  Also, I didn't really know how it would be worn on the animal!  I started looking at some directions to knit a hat for a preemie and worked from there.  I found the red yarn in a box at home, and then I saw that curly white yarn, too, so I decided to give that a try.  This is what happened:

 Bearded Dragon lizards celebrated Christmas in style!  Isn't he/she cute?  And now I'm out of the lizard hat business!  There really are people who do this so you can buy a variety of lizard hats on Etsy, but I guarantee you that they won't be made with the lizard love that went into these hats!

It's always interesting to get a new challenge!
