Celeste, a.k.a.
Pinky - I have known her ever since I moved to this lovely little town of ours 3 years ago. We befriended one another. She is still a young woman, with
stories to discover,
adventures to be wrought, and yet, an old and loving
soul resides within. She moves away tomorrow...
She is the
best model you could pray for - needs no direction, and looks marvelous in
anything. What shall I do without her?
These are
a collection of hats that I fashioned for myself after all of the holiday knitting had been done (easy pattern - just made it myself), and the
snow just kept on coming. And coming...we really had a lot of the white stuff. This is from a skein of the ever fabulous
Noro yarn I love.
Yummy colors, don't you think?
This is maybe
my favorite. I love
orange and I used a precious skein of hand dyed yarn that had little yardage, but lots of
attitude.
I love this shot. The
unplanned moments of life reveal so much.
This picture is
one in a million - she is
beautiful, as the sun sets in the background on her
last day with all of us. We all came out to hang with the
Pinkster and say our good byes.
I made this one
first- and it has the most spacious
headroom. Your hair could be tied up in a knot and you could still get this baby on and stay warm. Some of the yarn used in this was from a society that helps to protect the Snow Leopards and it is hand spun, hand dyed camel yarn from cottage industries overseas, paired with other scraps to make the yarn last for the project and as you might see on the
ear flaps, add some
dimensionality to the coloring.
All of the hats I
fully lined, including ear flaps, with a
complimentary color of fleece.
Toasty for the head - ready for any more
freakishly cold weather that may come our way.
Totally overindulgent of me -
three more hats!? Oh my...maybe it's time to grow some extra heads...
