As you are aware I have been watching Allison during the week or rather from monday through thursday’s. Yesterday hubby and I went to Hobby Lobby and Jo-ann’s…. yummy yarn was bought and another purple KK hatloom.
The reason being is I have several orders for hats.. So take a look.
the first one I made….by the way these are the german flag colors.. well not the white but the gold,red and black show up well on the white back ground.
here would be another version black background with the gold and red stripe…
and here my first try at a vertical striped hat. it’s a redbrown with a variegated red,brown,gray,pink as the other stripe..It’s a bit more time consuming due to the wrapping but its fun to make and look at when finished. Have to try to make one with a bit more contrasting colors to really show what it looks like.
anyhow some of my german friends really like the german type hats and put in some orders… so this weekend will be a marathon of hat making.
I finally found my mannequin head so I can take other pics besides using my little model…lol. As you can tell Allison is not to happy about hats when I put them on her.
My cocoon is coming along… working on the top part now .
Hope you all are having a good weekend. We have had a whole week of just slow slow rain. looks a bit gray all the time but you know its ok. I love the cooler weather since I have more energy….
for today you all have a wonderful weekend..Hugs Birgit
