I'm a hat-making fool!

 This week I spent a few days up in Bremerton. Before I went Theresa asked me to make a new hat & scarf set for Monroe because the one I made him last year was getting too small. I love to crochet and have made myself lots of scarves, but I almost never wear them because I'm always hot, so I was excited to do it for her. Plus I love to make things for people and have them actually use it. Then I decided that I wanted to make a set for Eve too so she'd have accessories to match her new winter coat. And if I was going to make them for the two of them I couldn't leave out Clara. Then I heard we were having a birthday party for Rick & me & Josh while I was there so I made hats for them too. Monroe & Clara's hats both turned out too small so I'll be making new ones for them, but they still looked cute!

Now I'm working on an extra-special hat for Theresa. She has a gigantic noggin and always has to buy men's hats so they'll fit, so I am making a really girly one for her. I ran out of yarn & had to order more online so she didn't get her hat with everyone else, but it'll be worth the wait!
