Birthday Hat

I made this hat for my dear friend Ashley.

No that is not snow in the background. It is a beautiful flowering tree.

If anyone knows what kind it is please tell!

The book I read this week is set in FLORIDA!!! Yeah!

My husband decorated my envelope this week while I'm waiting for an address for shipping.

Thank you James!

Yarn Bombing

She Sells Yarn is doing an event that I am SO excited about it.
We are going to yarn bomb Daytona Beach's trolly.
This morning I've been working on my part. Making it with the brightest yarn I have!

These are some of my favorite examples until I can show photos of ours:

Alpacas of Willow Hill, LLC

 We ventured to a local Aplaca farm in Deland. 5 min from my house! Who would have known.

Alpacas of Willow Hill.

Launda spent the morning showing us around the farm. We were delighted to see the shop and yarn. 

I think the animals were more excited to meet us than we were they.

Our social butterfly. She wanted to be part of all the action.

Bear made from baby Alpaca. Anabel was in love.

Gloves and Glittens.

Our mom who was due yesterday. We were hoping that she would give birth while we were there. No such luck

Sheering will be on March 26th. I am so excited. We are going to watch and maybe even help.

Stay in tune for details.

"You know, for kids."

 New Sweet Dreams hats for kids.

Today I am short on a child model. So my faithful dog Barbara will have to do.

The funny thing about me having Barbara is...

...I hate animals. I am deathly allergic.

But this dog was willed to me from an old friend.

Barbara her name sake would have loved this.

This hat is made from soft homespun
yarn and drawn together with a ribbon. What child wouldn't have the sweetest of dreams while wearing this cap?

Try one today.
