OPINIONS PLEASE!!

All non-commenters come out of the closet and help me make a decision PLEASE!!!

Should this little baby hat be left as is:

Or should it have a pompom: (the pom pom is just resting there for now, so it would be tighter to the hat and not AS tall looking as it appears right now)

And just for fun, here's the little coordinating mittens:

I dearly wish I'd known how to knit when my kids were babies!!!

I like how it looks without the pompom, but I don't like the way hats look on little girls if they just look like little tobagans (like boys wear). I actually like it with the pompom better.
I think it's really cute when a little girl has fluff or a pompom on the top of her hat. That is always adorable!

I vote no pompom. It's cute both ways, but I like it better without. Muy bonita, mi amiga. I'm so impressed!

I vote definitely YES pom pom. I also think little girls always deserve a "little something extra." (my 7 year old little girl likes the pom pom too)

I like the idea of the pom pom (a little extra detail for a girl) but it is a small hat, and although I think it will be a bit large on a newborn, it's intended for a young baby and would just sort of be in the way of headsupports in the carseat, etc. So I think I probably will leave it off, but it's pretty stinkin' cute WITH it! LOL

I like the pompom myself. You do such beautiful work Leah! How about attaching the pom pom with velcro? lol

I think I agree with you leah, no pom pom, just for carseat sake!! It is a totally adorable hat!!

Jen said...

I vote Pom pom because seriously is there anything cuter than a baby in a hat with a pom pom? PLUS it will look so so so cute in pics

Glad you love Knitting Leah!

I agree, no pom pom. .. If it was for a bigger child I would do the pom pom, but for a tiny baby I think I'd leave it as is. :)
