I am almost finished. The big order, 9 hats is finished and delivered. These hats are going to the nieces and nephews of my mom's physical therapist. Tate wore a monkey hat to visit mom one day last month. She asked where I got it and when I told her I made it, she asked if I could make some for her family. Sock monkey hats for the little boys. One older boy got a Spurs hat since he lives in San Antonio. And the girls got Roxy Owl hats.
3 more orders by Christmas and several on the waiting list for after the first of the year.
One of my customers sent me this picture via a Facebook Message so I don't know where she found it. Her message said, "Could you make this hat for Emmalynn? What I readlly like about is the colors - Christmas-like but NOT bright. Let me know!"
So I went on a search for yarn. After the third store I found this yarn.
I shared it on Facebook so my customer could see it and got some interesting comments.
I just had to laugh when I saw the comments. My thoughts were "They just have No Vision."
I am so glad I can see something unusual and envision it differently. Truly a gift from God. This yarn wasn't exactly like the yarn the hat I was trying to recreate was made from, but it was the right colors. The YARN was the only thing I could find after visiting 3 stores that was the right colors. That was what was important to my customer. So I bought it.
I must admit that I was afraid it wouldn't be a vibrant as the original. But as I worked with the yarn, I really liked how things were turning out.
GET READY
