Featured in the RAW art show

My knitted hats will be featured in the RAW artists show in Salt Lake City on Feb. 19th from 7pm to 12am.

I am so excited to do my first RAW art show!

RAW is a huge art show that takes place in over 60 different locations worldwide. It features artists in illustration, fashion, music, film, photography, performing arts, make-up, and hair. RAW features a lot of new artists like me that are trying to get established in the art world. It is a huge boost to new artists because it allows them to sell and get exposure. To learn more follow this link.

It seems hard to get in the RAW show so I was really surprised when I got in. I am so excited! I can’t wait until the show!

What’s this Blog all about?

I created this blog as a companion to my Etsy shop. On Etsy I can show and sell my hats but there isn’t a way for me to answer questions, include activities, or tell stories about my hats.

In this blog I tell stories about each hat, show activities you can do related to my shop, answer questions, give instructions, and basically do whatever I can’t on Etsy.

What is Etsy? Etsy.com is a wonderful website where crafters can sell their handmade goods. Every item on the site must be handmade, vintage, or a tool used to make crafts. I hand-knit all of my hats and sell them on Etsy. If you want to see more handmade goods please visit Etsy. There are a lot of talented people out there and you won’t believe what they can do until you see it for yourself.

New Headbands

I’ve added some adorable headbands to my Etsy shop

This is a diamond headband. Its very soft and stretchy and can cover your ears if you need it to.

This is a zigzag headband with a wildflower. That was the first time I made that flower and it turned out great! This headband can’t keep your ears warm but it can keep your hair out of your way while accenting your face.

I made this with moms of little girls in mind. It is a princess crown that can be machine washed and dried. It is also wide enough to keep your ears warm.

Mostly little girls are into princess crowns but I know a few teens and adult women who would love this headband too. It comes in a variety of colors if you don’t want a pink one.

New Arm and Leg Warmers

I’ve added some fingerless gloves to my Etsy shop.

These gloves are great for typing, crafting, texting, driving, eating, writing, and doing most things while keeping your hands warm. They are great for winter.

I added some arm warmers too.

These are so cute! They were the first I made with the diamond pattern and they turned out great. Also very useful for winter and go with most outfits.

Lastly, I added some fashionable leg warmers.

I spent a day in Chicago a month ago and nearly ever woman I saw was wearing these with high heels or boots. They are so attractive and easy to make. A great way to wear your favorite shoes and have warm ankles. These are definitely a must for any fashion forward lady.

New Owl Hats for adults and babies

I’ve added owl hats to my Etsy shop including one in a baby size.

  

The baby hat turned out so cute! I love the baby’s expression in the picture too. The other owl hats turned out really nice too. I love the pupils of the eyes.

Monsters for January 20

The next 2 monsters are some of my favorites.

This monster comes from the Etsy shop HagerdesignAtHome. I love this monster because it looks like its hiding behind the pocket. Its so cute! Its also a great gift for a little girl learning how to use a purse.

The creator also uses the word goofy in the title. I think that word describes it well.

Here’s my monster

This is my favorite monster hat so far but I’ll be making lots more. It was tons of fun to create the face, especially the two eyes. This hat is available in adult, child, and baby sizes.

Monster for January 19

This monster is from the Etsy shop Lilliannamarie. This is another great idea for kids. I fabric puzzle is much safer for babies to play with and harder for rough children to rip. There are tons of other fabric puzzle and toys from this shop. Check it out.

Here is my monster

My Mom says this monster hat looks like Spiderman. I guess you can imagine Spiderman eating your head when you see it.

Monsters for January 18

This monster is from the Etsy shop MoffitPlushCo. This shop has lots of other monsters and animal plushies. I chose this one because it is so cute! It has three eyes and is still adorable.

Monsters for January 17

I got way behind because I had to work extra hours at my job for the last few days. But I’m back and I have a lot of great news for the end of January.

These monsters are from the Etsy shop BlueSkyesAhead. I think this is such a great idea for children. It encourages them to think outside the box and enjoy some less expensive toys.

Here is my monster

I finally got a human model for these sporty monster hats. It looks like the hat is eating his head. It was also very fun to make.

Monsters for Jan. 15th

These monsters are from the Etsy shop Seedsof3. They eat your pajamas apparently. I think this is a really cute idea for kids. They can use it as a pillow and a place to keep their pajamas. Kids can also pretend the monster is eating their pajamas. I know I would have had fun with one of these.
