Sorry ya’ll…it just wasn’t possible to narrow it down to one shop today. So, you’re getting five shops.
This weekend was cold. I mean COLD. I live in South Carolina, so cold is a four-letter-word (for reasons other than it actually containing four letters). I don’t live in SC because I like snow or ice or coats, and this weekend made me want to stay inside as much as humanly possible.
Props to anyone who lives somewhere that actually has seasons…but it ain’t for me.
In thinking about this unusually cold weather, I thought about how we don’t get the opportunity to buy adorable winter clothes for our babies. On the rare occasion that we do go outside in the winter, we’re met with heavy jacket weather at worst. There’s never really a need for scarves or hats or mittens. This has never really bothered me, until, one day, I decided to search Etsy for baby hats.
Maybe I’ll buy some of these anyway and just take the girls to The Crazy Red-Haired Great-Aunt’s house…that woman, bless her heart, used to keep her house like an ice box. I wondered if maybe she had planned to store meat in the closets. If she didn’t, she should have. You can never have enough meat.
So yeah, those hats…
I’m not kidding…I would steal that baby on the left. Well, I guess that’s not true…I would maybe ask first if I could borrow it. But how cute are these caps?! I love hydrangeas, and I love them more sitting atop the good end of a baby.

GRACIE Crochet Pink Rose Baby Hat
Can I have that baby, too? Seriously, these people know we love cute babies, and that’s why they put them on their shops. And it totally works. That hat would look precious on any baby, but it looks especially sweet on this one (but not as cute as it would look on Ruby).
Adorable Crocheted Hat with Ears–Light Pink
There are several Etsy shops that do hats like this, but I just thought these looked so soft and comfy on the little baby’s head. And look at the sweet wittle baby wiff dose puffy wittle cheeks.
CUTE FLOWERY HAT for infant, toddler, baby, girl – Little Elegance
Mixed in with all of the adorable crochet masterpeices, I found this precious hat. Not sure how she makes them, but they are so cute (just like her kids)
Can you name a fruit or a vegetable? If you can, there’s a good chance that this woman has a hat that looks like it. I can’t even describe the cuteness of these hats, but I can tell you that they make me hungry. Oh, and the cupcake hat is too clever.
All of these shops were filled with so much sweetness that they might give you a toothache, but I think you should go check them out anyway.
