"I do not understand the "yf" in the pattern. Is this the same as a yarn over, yo, so the "(yf) twice" would be a "(yo) twice?please explain if you could. Thank you."

"Red Hearts Scrubby yarns are now available in three different styles which are sparkle, smoothie, and cotton. I prefer the cotton as it is really the best and most absorbent material to use in the kitchen and especially for something that will be near / used with water most of the time. These could also be doubled for more durability."

"Reading over all of the comments on this post, I am both amused and amazed at how many people dont understand how to click the direct links to the free patterns and then either printing the pattern or saving it as a PDF. This is an awesome collection of afghans and definitely one to keep bookmarked."

"This adorable Happy Hippo Hat is an easy animal hat knitting pattern for newborns, babies and toddlers. It was inspired by a fun classic board game that my son found in my parents' basement and it looks so cute on a little one. It includes instructions for the adorable hippo snout and cute little hippo ears. You will want to make more than one to give as gifts for every baby shower you go to!"

This is such a cut pattern for a little one. I have a friend who loves to put different hats on her little one and this will be perfect. You don't see many hippo patterns. Easy to follow and will work up quickly. Thank you.

I just saved this one. I have new twin grand sons and this would look great on them. I have a nice pattern for a diaper cover so it will make a great set. It is easy and should make up quickly. Thank you for sharing this great pattern for my grand sons.

This is another animal hat that is too cute for words. I have seen other hippo hats and I love the simplistic design of this one. Any baby would look adorable wearing it and it is another pattern that would make a perfect gift or photo props. Looks like another pattern I'm adding to my list.

I have a friend who loves hippos a lot, so this will be perfect when she has her first baby! Such a cute pattern.
