My Personal Photoblog

Before I ever started in the fiber arts, I was always a bit of a shutterbug.
Now, with WordPress.com’s recent release of Monotone, a chameleon photoblogging platform, I have taken the plunge and started a photo site of my own.
This spiffy platform, designed by Noel Jackson, is perfect for showcasing images, as it automatically resizes each page to fit the picture AND (after sampling the pixel colors) chooses a complimentary background color for each post.
So, if you find yourself dawdling in cyberspace, come visit and see what the world looks like from my point of view… (when I am not focused on hand knit felt hats!).

My Mission
I create highly functional, exquisitely handcrafted art-to-wear Heirloom Handknit Hats.
Winter is wonderful... but not if you're cold. That's where a lovely, warm hat fits in!
If wearing one of my hats helps you get outside and enjoy yourself, then I will have played my small part in making the world a little warmer and brighter.
Your head is sacred. It's my mission to create original art-to-wear hats that are worthy of your head.
Art-to-Wear for Every Head
Each of my Heirloom Handknit Hats begins as a giant, over-sized stocking cap, knit by hand of llama and wool.
Next, it is shrunk into a thick, durable felt in the washing machine, which is then shaped by hand and air-dried.
Finally, each hat is lined with a silky ribbon to keep it's shape and provide lasting comfort. Many are finished with freehand embroidery, as unique as the wearer.
All are signed, dated and numbered by hand.
With less than 200 made each year, these hats are truly limited-editon, art-to-wear pieces that will provide years of warmth and comfort for the lucky owner.
