Where Can I Find a Golfer Cap for Infant Boy

Naturally Cool
Rad Rayon Infants Donegal
Golf Cap

This Donegal, otherwise known as a golf cap, will make the perfect photo prop accessory for that special baby in your life.  The Rad Rayon Donegal features my favorite yarn company, Darn Good Yarn.

Rad Rayon is the first of its kind from Darn Good Yarn.  They knew that you have been needing a Darn Good Yarn that is machine washable and dryable! Well, now they have the solution for you.

Nicole worked with one of her very special co-ops and they were able to develop a rayon yarn that is machine spun and hand dyed. This leaves you with the perfect yarn for baby items and other items that need to be very soft yet durable!  This sport weight yarn comes in 100 g hanks and gives you 200 yards.

This is the first crochet pattern I have designed using this amazing yarn and my creative wheels are just spinning away.  I am also working on a matching infant boys cardigan to go with this hat and I will be making all sizes for this Donegal available in the future.

Stay tuned for more great patterns featuring Rad Rayon.  Don't forget, fans of Cre8tion Crochet get a special Darn Good Discount for using promo code "cre8" when ordering your own skein of Rad Rayon.
