This pink beanie can be worn as a baggy beret. It has vintage black sequins woven into it which creates a polka-dot effect. Unique and fun.

Brown and Red Back -To-School
Same style as the earlier Back -To-School hats. Bunchy top, baggy fit, and ribbed band. To create this chunky, two-toned tweed effect, I crochetted with two strands of different vintage, salvaged yarns.

Kid's Fuzzy Earflap Hat
Blue, green, turquoise, and purple are the colors that make up this uni-sex 1-4 years hat. Soft, fuzzy and warm, with earflaps and tassels.
Chunky Raspberry Beanie
This is a thick-knit baggy beanie. The yarn is very soft and made up of a few shades of brown and raspberry.
Open-Knit Sparkly Tam
This hat is black with green sparkles. I got the sparkly yarn in Mexico. It works nice as a little hair net.
Cotton Rainbow Tam
Bright yellow chartruse with red, green, and gold multi-colored yarn. 100% cotton. Open knit and "Granny Square" design at the top.
Jamuna Rosa French Beret
This beret was inspired by Jamuna's magenta hat, which she made with a rose flower at the top. This one is different because it has a brimmed edge all around. It is made with a beautiful brown sparkly gold yarn from France.
Dark Blue Tweed Wool Dread Cap!
Navy Blue is my new favorite hat color for this season. I still have this one in size med. dread. It has a nice open design on top. 100% wool.

BC High-grade Wool Fades
These wool hats are made with multicolored wool yarn that creates a color fading look. I got the yarns on Granby Island in Vancouver, BC. The yarn is actually from Japan. Pictured top to bottom: Green, Brown and Blue.
Vintage Brown Fade
This hat is made with some vintage yarns in shades of brown and red and gold. It is a size small dread hat. (Or baggy beanie, size large). Very Fall.
Pool Hat
I call this the pool hat because it reminds me of all the nice times I had this summer swimming at a beautiful pool in downtown Santa Cruz. It is made with white and blue velour yarn from my Aunt Punkin. It has a very soft texture almost like velvet meets terry cloth. It would be perfect for putting wet hair in after a swim! And even though it is October, the perfect warm days are still rolling in out here in California.
