When there is no baby to model your pixie hat, try a small melon!!!

Have chosen a new design for the autumn, a cute pixie hat from this pattern.  It looked quite small when it was knitted up but due to the fact that its ribbed I knew it would stretch.  After looking about for a suitable head sized object to try it out on I found this melon!!

I am really pleased with it, can't wait to see a photo of it on an actual real baby instead of a piece of fruit!
