Rastafari Crowns with Badges

These are two of my classic designs, solid camo with brim, and white ites, with badges I sewed on them.  They look great-- my only complaint would be that they don't look handmade!

Mountain Hat

 This hat is made with ribbon that I got in Cusco, Peru.  It is neon green\yellow with gold embroidery.  The hat is made with cream colored yarn.  There are tassels on the earflaps and at the top and also puff balls all around in two rows.  The ribbon is woven in and out.  It was inspired by all the beautiful indian hats in Peru.

Ras Beaded Earrings

Four of these pairs of earrings all have red, green and gold.  The two on the bottom are opposites of each other.  they are made with a green I call the Julienne Green; it is a vintage olive color.  The central pair at the top is grey with green and white.  The other two, top right and top left, are the same except one has black details and the other gold.

Another Pinky

Hot pink yarn synched-up with royal blue and gold sparkly yarn from Mexico.  Ribbed band at the bottom.  Funky tweed effect.  

Remy's Cable Hats

 Here are two nice cable beanies that a long-time customer ordered recently. Below is his cute dog modeling another cable hat in aqua. 
Below is a very sweet dog garment\coat\costume.  I did not make that; it was a photo I came across and wanted to share.  Little Lamb!  It is funny sometimes the expressions that the dogs have in these pictures!  Sorta startled or maybe annoyed.  Or just patient.  Hahaha!

Puff Paint

Did you ever play with puff paint as a child7  I did.  This art has become popular again in some circles lately.  When Jamuna's sister Suna was visiting recently, we bought some paint and decorated lighters, sunglasses, and pouches, among other things.  Her lighter is on the far left.  The one on the right has an Ital Hemp Wick, a smoking product that I promoted this summer at the festivals.

Hot Pink with Black Polka-Dots

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.

This is a thick-knit baggy beanie. The yarn is very soft and made up of a few shades of brown and raspberry.
