Bottom Line Custom Order:

This will get you a solid hat, made to last a lifetime. Your dream is my work. You choose the colors, the basic shaping and any restrictions on yarns. I will ask you some questions about where you want to wear it and your personal style. Then, I take it from there.

*I recommend you take advantage of my free, pre-order consultation. If you want a hat for theater or something very, very specific and sculptural, I can make it out of yarn. However, the time and material costs need also be considered.

This one folds into six clearly different styles! More variations are possible. An excellent travel hat, available in wool or acrylic. Ask about colors presently available.

It has been brought to my attention that this hat may be a helpful hat for chemotherapy patients. Most people think I have a full head of hair when I wear it. You can change it depending on wear you are going. I believe you will find it softer than a wig — not scratchy.
