<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

This might be a somewhat silly question, but I just wanted to get some outside opinions on a situation I find myself in. I realize that "gift suggestion posts" are prohibited, but this question is more about the personal interaction part of a potential gift.

My partner and I live across the way from a couple who have just had a baby.  We aren't close to them, in fact we really haven't interacted much aside from the occasional "hello, how are you" when we see each other in the parking lot or on the bus. Once when I was sitting outside knitting, one of them commented something like "Oh, that's so lovely, my wife would love to learn to knit one day."

I really enjoy knitting/crocheting and am reasonably good at it. It's just a hobby, and I will often make gifts for family/friends and have had a few commissions.  It's something I do while I watch TV to unwind after work, or on airplanes. I have made a few things for babies and have plenty of baby-friendly yarn leftover.  

Here is my question: would it be very weird to give them a knit hat as a gift for the baby? I know homemade things like this are often very personal, but honestly I'm going on a cross-country trip this weekend and would love a little project to work on on the plane. I don't want them to feel like I've overstepped my bounds or something, or like I'm the weird neighbor.
<bot>: I don't know my neighbors very well, but would love to knit a little hat for their new baby. Is this too weird?
