Team Vampire Slouch Hat

I have an obsession with cables lately so don't be surprised if my next few projects have cables LOL I made this the night New Moon came out on DVD and I wanted to wear it while I was waiting in line at midnight haha. What better than a blood red slouchy hat? :) Like I have said before, I am not good at naming things. Team Vampire seemed appropriate for the mood was in :) What do you think?
The pattern available for $4.99 at Annie's Attic.

Lucky Slouchy Hat

I wanted to have a hat for Saint Patrick's Day so I came up with this. I am really loving cables lately :) It has an Irish feel to it so I just called it Lucky Slouchy hat. (I'm not really good at naming things lol) What do you think? The pattern is available at Annie's Attic for $4.99
Thanks for looking :)











I hope Everyone had a Happy Saint Patrick's Day ;D

Child's Pixie Hat

I made myself the Dark Faery Slouch Hat so I decided to make my daughter a hat too. She is never happy with a hat unless it has a lot of Orange in it. Why does my daughter's favorite color have to be one of my least favorite colors? LOL I came up with this. It has a scarf too so now I won't have to deal with her coming home an saying another kid choked her with her scarf (hopefully). (all I think when I hear that story is "Where was the recess person or teacher when this was happening?") With the scarf attached it is less of a hassle to get her ready to go out. Just pull it on and it is done :) Also she shouldn't lose her hat if it falls off her head. I personally don't like the color combination but that is just me. The colors go together well but I would have chosen some other color haha. Oh well the things we do to please our kids. What do you think? This pattern will be available in My Etsy Store soon for $3.

Dark Faery Slouch Hat

I had a dream about this hat. I woke up and then had to make it. It is pretty much the only thing I remember about the dream besides lots of trees lol. What do you think? This pattern is now available in my Etsy shop for $3.

(It is hard to take a picture of the side of your head in a bathroom mirror LOL)


Here it is with it worn up on the forehead



for some reason this hat reminds me of a witch hat. (and being Pagan I'm OK with that) Someone else also told me it reminds them of the Lord of the Rings. Now I think of Gandalf when I look at it haha. I have been watching the movies a lot lately. Maybe it was in my subconscious or something hehe.



Here it is worn off the back of the head a little bit so it is slouchy



I found out some people were selling the finished hats from my free patterns without crediting me at all so I will not be making this hat a free pattern and I pulled some (not all) of my other free patterns. If you want to know more click here: http://aprildraven.blogspot.com/2010/02/update.html I will still be making free patterns from time to time just not as much.
