Lefty Loops Review & Giveaway {closed}

I recently discovered Lefty Loops when we won a Custom Cupcake Hat from a giveaway at Wee Share. Tara, is the creative mama behind the Etsy shop Lefty Loops. She is the full-time mom to one little boy and a part-time speech-language pathologist. She began her business of selling adorable crocheted hats on Etsy so that she wouldn't have to go back to work full-time. What a great motivation!

When I found out that we had won a Bake your Own Cupcake Hat, I was very excited. I knew it would be perfect for Emahry, even though she has never eaten an entire cupcake in her life, the hat seems to fit her personality. Emahry loved choosing the flavors for her hat.

We both anticipated its arrival and were very excited when the package showed up at the post office. Every time Emahry wears her cupcake hat it gets noticed. The unique design makes this a perfect addition to any little girl's cool weather wardrobe.

Since we love Emahry's hat so much, I was thrilled when Tara asked if we would like to review a new hat design that she was adding to her shop. We waited again with anticipation until another package arrived.

Tara sent us this adorable Bunny Hat and Carrot Rattle for Eliya. She wore it on our walk home from the post office and it has already received many compliments.



This precious hat is made from white yarn and has a small flower that can be customized with a choice of four colors. The combination of this bunny hat and carrot rattle would make a wonderful Easter gift for a baby or toddler in your life.



We are very pleased with both of these hats. The stitching is very uniform and the overall design and quality is very good. We will definitely recommend Lefty Loops to all of the people who stop and ask where we got these adorable hats! These hats are truely finer things.


Here are some more of our favorite things from Lefty Loops. Simply click on each picture to view the listing or browse through the entire shop.

First of all I have to say these are the cutest hats i have ever seen. I have three boys ages 7 months, 2 years and 4 and they are all huge ELMO fans. I would have to choose Character Ear Flap Hat Inspired by Elmo. They would all love this.
