WoW, knitting!
My husband (who was amused/horrified to see I referred to him as "DH" in earlier postings) is an avid player of World of Warcraft. One of his WoW guildmates just became a dad, and my better half/ball and chain/hunky studmuffin said 'Can you knit him something "Warcrafty" as a baby gift?' This seemed to fit the bill - it's Chile Con Yarne's Baby Viking Hat pattern:
Alas, the rivets don't show up well in this photo. Can you read the cute but geeky WoW item tag that my POSSLQ/partner created? Click on the photo for a close-up.
Yarn: Lion Wool Ease; Sz 7 Pony Pearl dpns; ties crocheted with my index finger because it was late and I couldn't find a crochet hook.
Note: no, that is not the baby wearing the hat, that is a stand-in basketball. And no, that is not a standard size basketball. I do have *some* sense of gauge, thank you very much.

Nice baby viking hat! Perfect for the future warcraft player.
Or for actual baby vikings.
Eeeek, that's cute! Do you think the baby in question would enjoy a chicken viking hat too? I made one as a test-run for an adult-sized version, and still haven't found a baby with cool (or geeky) enough parents to enjoy it.
that is perhaps THE most awesome baby hat I have ever seen. Forget about those berry/eggplant hats now.
