When you’re asked to make a hat

for a dear friend, you drop everything and you make her two hats! A friend sent me a photo and asked me to make her a hat like the one someone else was wearing. It initially looked to me like a brioche hat, so I found a free brioche hat pattern, pulled out two skeins… Continue reading When you’re asked to make a hat
