All Grown Up Striped Slouch Hat. Moogly reader Brea recently came up with the brilliant idea of making a slouchy hat to match the All Grown Up Arm Warmers – and she was kind enough to let me run with it!

And with or without the Arm Warmers, I think the All Grown Up Striped Slouch Hat is a keeper!

Crocheted Doily Rug

You can crochet a giant doily and use it as a rug, or even as well, a giant doily! This one would look great on a round table, or just about anywhere really.
