Hats off to you, Renotta

R wrote - I can feel the heat. I think it's almost worse than what we're going through. I highly recommend AC. Wow, 42 degrees C is 107 degrees F. That's hot!!!

Clara - memories of when we first moved to Australia - we were told ' Give away all your jumpers (sweaters) - it is so hot in Australia that 'old ladies have to put their feet in the refrigerator to stay alive.'  Mythical and illogical on reflection (if the old ladies had their feet in the frig it would have to be working overtime to make a difference)..... however it was one of those days. While we are now experiencing bushfires, we hear about the snow at your end of the globe.  I hope you are as warm and snug as your lovely hats make me feel.

I can relate to this picture.  On our return from a trip to Hawaii,
we had to dig our way through the wave of snow to get to
the front door.

How to make a funky hat

R wrote in http://projectknitway.blogspot.com/ The cold weather continues and I have lots of requests for hats, so it's back hat you. I love making these hats. Each one turns out differently and enjoys a place in my studio for a day or two before heading to my store. Once again, I am using Lionbrand Homespun yarn, the same yarn that I knit the shelter scarves from. My plan is to make these hats as well as the scarves for area shelters. The hats are not only warm but fun and funky and lift your spirits when you wear one......Read more on how to make these  ►  Jan 09 (1)




Clara - These hat and scarf combinations look cosy and comforting.  One day they may become a 'collectors item'.

Denim Divas look great in hats.

Jurassic Park...April 6th

Woodland creature dons cozy felted hat.

Hi R
You amaze me with your creativity - this is a wonderful hat with so many processes to get to this point - very you colour.  Denim Divas look great in hats - I always look twice at a women in a stylish hat and since we lose most of our body heat from our heads, it makes sense to wear one. Most of the time, down under, except for a brief cold period, a hat is vital for sun protection and yet it is not easy to find a flattering hat.  I believe we really don't embrace hats enough and this is why there is a limited focus. 

I hope the world is looking at your daily blog with the same interest and amazement as me.  THE WEDDING is this Saturday and even though I am not at the helm, my headspace is taken up with the surrounding detail.  When the happy event is over, and the dust settles, yes, we will engage the world.  Denim divas are not dinosaurs!  And we like to be noticed -  so wear more hats. 
Love Clara
