One for Papa.
This hat was made from my first handspun yarns and knit up on needles that were far too small for my adjustments to this awesome pattern that I will be using again and again and again.
One for Mama.
This tam was made from the upcycled yarns from my stash using a pattern from my very favorite crochet hat pattern book.
And one for a pretty lady down the street that I traded for a couple of super sweet hula hoops. This little number is crocheted from Serendipity yarn that was solar dyed. The hat is my own design.
For those of you who haven’t yet had the pleasure of meeting her, Serendipity is my handcrafted spinning wheel that my great aunt gave me. She has a mind of her own in a quirky (sometimes frustrating) way. And she’s the queen of novelty yarn. It’s pretty much all she makes.

I like to watch things change.
oh! they look so warm and kozy, as well as feel-good for the handcraftiness of them* yay!
i’m so glad you’ve used “Serendipity” for a name… put to good use as i did not have the chance to use it as my brain intended. and her attitude sounds perfect… lots to learn about patience in there.
great work, Julie.
thanks, sandie! it suits her perfectly and was named in honor of you, my beautiful friend.
