Smoosh Hat

cuteellaisbold — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 17:17:06 +0000

I made this for my niece to go with her navy blue coat. She just loves hats and when I felt this yarn, I knew it would be perfect for her.

Soft like your favorite well-loved and worn t-shirt, warm for a cool fall or warmer winter day this hat is velvety soft and a great addition to any outdoor outfit.

Currently this item is only available in softer pastel colors that include pale yellow (featured) soft rose pink, light peachy pink, light periwinkle blue, soft blueish green, pale pea green, white, and beige. Please specify what color when ordering and the measurement around the top of your child’s ears.

This item is washable, but please do so by hand.

As each item is crocheted by hand, there may be some variation in the finished product.

Smoosh Hat – Child is listed on my Etsy shop (or if an adult wants one it’s $22 plus shipping) or can be ordered by commenting below or emailing me at CuteEllaisBold(at)gmail(dot)com

Hat for a first Halloween

My SIL asked if I could make my little buddy a pumpkin hat for his first Halloween, of course the answer was yes!

Originally, I put eyes and a mouth on it, but decided that it was totally cuter without it. See, the little guy has big eyes and a smile that lights up the room, so I thought the hat could just be the pumpkin.

I dig it.

If you’d like one for your little one, please email me (cuteellaisbold(at)gmail(dot)com) for cost and sizing options. Any requests for one need to be to me by Oct 22, 2011!

(For other hats and scarves, please check out my Etsy shop, or email me if you have something special you’d like.)

Stores should take note…

How many times have you found what could be the greatest pair of pants ever or the best dress ever in a store? They’re in the perfect color you’ve been searching for, a made from a great fabric and at a price you’re willing to pay? Then you go try it on and although you’re pretty sure that it fits just fine and you look good in them, you can’t buy them because the combination of the lighting and mirror angle in the room is just terrible.

That happens to me all the time. I’ve started taking photos rather than rely on the mirror in a dressing room. It doesn’t always work, but sometimes it helps.

Seriously, some stores would make a crap ton more money if they had better lighting. (And less ugly clothing, I’m looking at you New York & Company last season!)

See this photo? I took it in my hotel room before a presentation. The mirror and lighting in made me feel like a million bucks and want to go shopping.

Mirrors in most stores?

Not so much.

Stores? You want more of my money? Get your act in gear.

Newest hat to add to the bunch

I made one in purple for my grandmother.
It is her favorite color after all.
