After all the recent gray days, both in weather and in the emotions of our country, the sun is out today. It’s a beautiful day out there, though the trees are bare and brown, and the grass isn’t looking so great. It’s still beautiful to see the sun and it is lifting my spirits, reminding me of better days ahead.
I thought it a perfect time to post my newest hat, shown on a sweet newborn baby. There is Joy in this world. Even in our darkest times.
As mentioned in the previous post, I have made a couple of versions of the Chip. I have 3 available – 1 in winter white, and 2 in this cool blue/green. All organic cotton. Both the blue/green hats were made from the same skein, so the colors match, but there is a slight variation in how the pattern knitted up. I really do love these, and love this yarn! I should make one for myself sometime…when I’m ‘done’ with all my other projects. See the joke there? No knitter is ever really done with all of their projects. 
🙂
Well, thanks to a road trip to take the kid to camp, I was able to make 2 “Chip”s. They’re from the same skein, of course, so they match perfectly and would be great for twin boys. 🙂
I also was able (sans kid) to find time to finish a larger version of the JT (below). This is the super softest yarn ever, and is a really lovely color, though technically, I guess you could call this color ‘brown’. 
I’m excited to be able to find time to knit again! The kid is gone all week. Let’s see what I can accomplish!
I realize that it’s not easy to see where to purchase my hats. Although I think I’m pretty computer savvy, I have to be at work, I just couldn’t get my brain around setting up a store website. So, I decided to use Etsy. It’s easy to use )for both me and my customers), reliable, trustworthy and user friendly.
Therefore….if you can’t figure out where my ‘Store’ is – it’s at http://www.etsy.com/punkinhead1 or you can just click the link to the right. 🙂 There you’ll see all the hats available now and can easily make your purchase. So far the farthest I’ve shipped is Houston. Where to next?
Thanks for looking (and shopping!)
