A wonderfully comfortable hat to wear both in the yarn and the size. It will fit most adults. This hat is meant to fit gently on the head to help prevent your hair from getting flattened. The top is gathered with straight decrease lines for a simple finishing detail.

A New Dolly




It was time for a new doll in our house. The doll this is "replacing" was made with a poor choice of yarn hair, which is more than a little sad to look at these days. Her skin is stained with chocolate and bleached by Color Wonder markers. I am quite happy with this one, it is my favorite hair choice yet. She got a new outfit too :)
