When you wear a hat-
you are making a wintery fashion statement.
Everyone notices a girl in a hat!
~~
Introducing my winter slouch hat collection~
(all of these hats are "one size fits all"
they are super slouchy
and can be adjusted to fit in many ways.)
the Eleanor hat
~
seriously slouchy-
made from a soft acrylic yarn
that is accented with sequins.
The entire band around the hat is
an over sized wide cable.
the brim can be rolled up or down
to adjust to your own style.
~
no two people will wear this hat alike
there are SO many possibilities.
the Marilyn hat
~
washable suede
this hat is super light weight and stretchy
but incredible WARM!
this is the hat that I wore in these photos
shown earlier as part of the Pink Scarf Project.
My email box literally filled up
with folks asking about this hat!
~
Maria and I took off that morning to
frigid temps--
I popped this hat on at the last minute.
Its so light weight -- and yet
it is warm as can be.
~
Every time I wear this hat -
someone asks about it. I actually
made three for this showing,
but already sold 2 here locally.
so now there is only
one left!
the Lesly hat
~
made from the most exquisite mohair yarns-
this hat is slouchy, stretchy, soft, and WARM.
I knitted this hat sitting on the beach in St. Martin
last spring-
it turned out so beautiful that I had
to make one for myself.
~
This hat is drop dead gorgeous
with that perfect slouchy drop!
~
(this hat style is the same pattern
as the suede hat above-
the mohair makes this hat also very lightweight
but wonderfully warm and slouchy!)
a little story~
while I was knitting this hat-
an elderly gentleman came up to me and asked
if he could touch my yarn.
He told me that his wife had recently passed away
and that she had loved to knit.
He told me that she always used the most beautiful
yarns and that I reminded him of her.
He said that he was an "expert on beautiful yarns
because of his wife.".
~
Every time I wear this hat,
I think of that sweet man.
He said her name was Lesly
so I named this hat in her honor.
the Madelyne hat
~
a simple bucket style
with the most incredible slouchy drop.
a brim that can be rolled up or down-
this hat is super WARM!
I love this style of hat
and I own it in three colors!

at Lake Louise, Canada
the Vicki hat
~
I love to make hats
and I love to WEAR hats in the winter!
This is the tan sequin hat
that I am wearing in the above photo.
So-
I named it after me.
(I can do that - right?)
the Christine hat
~
another one of my favorite hats,
and I own this hat as well.
~
Similar in design to the Eleanor hat
(except without sequins)-
this hat is made from the most exquisite yarn.
Marled hues of denim blues,
with a tiny metallic silver thread
throughout~
this is the perfect hat
to wear with your blue jeans and boots!
(I made 2 because I LOVE this yarn!)
the Angela hat
~
this beautiful hat is the same style
as the one named for me--
I used a multi textured
"thick and thin" yarn
with silver metallic threads
throughout.
~
and because I can't
"leave things alone!"
I added beaded flower and leaf
embellishments.
~
yes --
it's gorgeous!
the Clarissa hat
~
this beautiful hat is the same style
as the Christine and Eleanor hats
pictured above.
~the sequins
in this hat just glisten
so beautifully in the light.
want to make a statement?
this is definitely the hat for you!
(I don't own this hat yet --
but I will before the winter is over!)
the Margaret hat
~
BLACK- that iconic color that is always perfect.
The sequins make it even more special.
~
this is also the same style as the
Clarissa, Christine, and Eleanor hats
shown above.
wear this hat with your best black winter coat
or your blue jeans and leather jacket-
~
black never goes out of style.
period.
a little story~
I knitted this hat while we were on
a cruise earlier this year.
Sitting on the deck beside me were two
little German ladies (who did NOT speak English).
~
They were asking me to tell them what I was knitting.
Finally, when I finished the hat,
I put it on my head and modeled it for them.
They were both so excited that
they jumped up and down clapping their hands!
~
(try to imagine how super cool
I looked wearing this hat on the top deck
of a cruise ship along with my bathing suit!)
