Ushanka (Ear Hat)

For this hat I added a soft fuzzy yarn which created a sea anemone-like feeling inside and a Russian Ushanka on the outside.  An ushanka (Literally "ear hat") (Russian: уша́нка; pronounced [uˈʃankə])

Jessica

 

Jessica requested a hat design where "Tim Burton meets Dr. Seuss". I originally wanted to use purple and lime green, but it just didn't work when i put those colors together. The hat's personality guided me as it emerged. The other thing for this hat was it had to be big enough for dreads. A purple dread crown!

Gabe looking fabulous while striking a pose with her colors of the ocean inspired hat. I crocheted a band as an extra layer inside the hat to keep those ears warm.

Shower cap poem

 

A good friend of mine sent this amazing handmade silk scarf from her recent trip to Vientiane, Lao. The card included a quote from the hotel shower cap with this poem inside: "I can take to the skies. I can soar like a bird. With his heart full of song. Won't you color my eyes. I've been waiting so long" -Unknown.  Scarves and wall hangings available through The Family of Fabric.

Needle Tierra

We love head needles...not so fuzzy, but "Qi", energy sensations can be warm as well as glamorous.
