I picked up this gorgeous little harvest sack in tkmaxx the other day it was £2.99 and I knew big boy would love it. We have a whole feast of knitted food, but the satsumas, strawberries and apples fitted the harvest bill the best. I adore the knitted food and am completely in awe of people who can knit such intricate things! We have all sorts, 99 ice creams, biscuits and various dinners which we play cafes with!

So here’s our first of many garden harvests! Farmer small boy joined in too!

The reason we refer to our eldest son who will be 3 in May as the big boy is because since the day he was born he’s always been, well, big. He was a perfectly average 8lb 5oz but within 6 weeks had doubled his weight and within 12 weeks he had almost tripled! That was when a bottle became my saviour as I think he had taken everything I had and more!

So my big boy, who is still only 2, needs something more exciting than a bonnet this Easter. Bonnets were so last year.

So here is my attempt at a cool big boy hat for the Easter parade tomorrow. Not the most polished crafty project I know but he had great fun and I think it should win top marks for effort!

The cockerel cowboy hat, ta daa! 

I found the cowboy hat in The Range but saw it in Hobbycraft too £1.99, had black rope around the top so I changed that for more Easter-like ribbon!

Will post a photo from the parade tomorrow!
