This hat has been with me for a long time, and while it may not be the prettiest headcovering in the world it is definitely one of the most snuggly warm and practical in cold weather. It's made of very thick yarn and I used to wear it during my lifeguarding days when it was freezing outside and the pool, for some reason was still open (with no one there I got a lot of reading done for classes and who can argue with sitting around for six hours getting paid to read while waiting to see if anyone will show up?). I had a number of friends tell me it was the ugliest hat they'd ever seen, but it's blue, it matches a lot of my dresses and I love it! So here is my Head Covering of the Week, my not so pretty, sensible knit cap!

Head Covering of the Week

I love comments and I read every single comment that comes in (and I try to respond when the little ones aren't distracting me to the point that it's impossible!). Please show kindness to each other and our family in the comment box. After all, we're all real people on the other side of the screen!

HEY! Give that baby a head covering too. It's cold out there. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! She had one, but she kept pulling it off. I think she knew that I was very proud of it because i'd knit it the whole way on the car ride to the coast and I finished it just in time! She was definitely not having it! She's also a pretty good shoe and sock remover!
ReplyDeleteDo you folks live anywhere near the redwood trees? I do tree work, but out here in Kansas we don't grow anything much over 70 feet.
ReplyDeleteIt takes us a couple of hours to get to the redwoods, which we pass through to get to the ocean. Where we are it's pretty hot and dry in summers so we mostly have big pine trees and some maples and oaks. If you go above us a few thousand feet though the cedar trees and firs start. I've noticed when we go back east to visit my husbands family that the trees are a lot smaller there!
