Having been asked by a friend to make a certain hat, I have been catapulted down quite an exciting path. Since my first attempt at making the hat didn't go quite as I wanted (you can see that post here), I went for a second attempt at the hat. And...here it is....
I am quite happy with this version. It came out much closer to what I was wanting. I adjusted my pattern a bit and used a lighter weight yarn. I definitely helps the spiral pattern to stand out more. I am happy and so is my friend. The best part though...
The decorations are changeable! This was my friends great idea and I put it into action. The bottom one is holly for Christmas. I will have to get a picture with her adorable daughter wearing it.
The new path I was talking about is actually and old one that I had stepped off a bit ago. I have always wanted to turn my craft from just a hobby to a business. Its been a dream for a few years. Not a full time business mind you, but a little on the side. I was in the process of doing this, then some bumps in life happened and I had to sideline it. But now I have my inspiration back again. I'm blogging again, my crafting feels more inspired and I am finding tons of joy from it. So, we'll see where this path takes me.
For right now though this path takes me over to Frontier Dreams where I finally get to participate in Keep Calm Craft On which I have been watching for quite a while now. I get so much inspiration from everyone who links up and I am proud that I can join the group.
