From Heather Halpern’s Sketchbook: My Hannah Kearney Tribute Coif

I have a childhood friend who happens to be an AMAZING artist, who happens to be participating in the 2012 Sketchbook Project, who happened to sketch the Hannah Kearney Tribute Coif I wore skiing on my last visit to The Balsams:

My "Hannah Kearney Tribute Coif" sketched by Heather Halpern.

I’m stunned by the photo-realism of Heather’s work! Look how she captured the nubby texture of my felt hat above, and also of her lovely daughter’s hat… AMAZING!

See more of Heather’s 2012 Sketchbook, and let her know what you think… Heather has only recently begun to share her work publicly. Please tell her: we want more!

New! CCM Felt Hat for Men

After several requests, I’m happy to introduce:

Hanover High School Boy's Hockey Coach, Dick Dodds and the first-ever CCM felt toque.

My 1st-ever felted beanie-type hat, designed with your Favorite Guy in mind!

Hockey demands warmth, comfort and style for all it's gear, especially hats.

Upon seeing this felt hat for men, my own Sweet Man assured me I’d hit a homerun with the new design. He immediately requested his own, in brown.

Andy needed his own felt hat, in earth-tones.

Happiness is a comfy, warm felt hat in the middle of winter.

I’m planning on knitting up a dozen-ish of these new men’s felt hats for the 2012 Sunapee Fair. Let me know if your Favorite Guy has favorite colors…
