Well, Schnapps designed this one a couple of weeks ago, but finally I have the pattern ready to go up. I try to stay away from names that use the color of the model, but we just couldn't come up with one that seemed right. Feel free to make it in any color you choose!
Schnapps and I have been tagging all the hats that come in and turning right around and shipping them out to those who need them. This year we have an increased demand for hats, so please, take some time and make at least one hat for someone battling cancer. Drop them off locally or send them to me and Schnapps, but make a difference for someone. Especially if you have used any of my patterns before..........pay it forward and warm someone up! Schnapps would appreciate it!
The patterns in the photo below are the patterns found in The Play Book,
an e-book of patterns that are not published elsewhere. I have several e-books available for purchase. The e-book can
be purchased by using the link to the right on this page or by going to
my Ravelry store or my Craftsy store.
Those links are also to the right of this page and are where all my patterns can be found. 100% of the cost of
all my patterns is put right back into supplies and shipping for DEHH and KKforK.
