So I've gotten a few hats for my friend Steph, who has lost her hair to chemo. A few more are coming in, but these are the ones I've already sent to her. And I know that the package has arrived, but she hasn't checked her PO Box, so they are languishing there.
This hat was made by Nomi. Ultra alpaca (50% alpaca, 50% wool), it's a double rib all the way up. And very soft.
This hat was made by me. Malabrigo Silky Merino (51% silk, 49% wool). I like to think it looks like the ocean sky at sunrise ('cause Steph likes ocean colours).
This was made by Erick. Also Malabrigo Silky Merino, it really is ocean colours.
I need to make sure Steph goes to her PO Box today and gets her package. I also made her an alpaca shawl, much like the ones for Libby (see previous post), only in a dark wine-red.
More hats are on their way. I'm meeting with my friend Shirley on Sunday to pick up the ones she has made, and I hope on Monday the boys from NIN will have one or two for me.
