Mitchell Park
While growing up we had a special couple that we adopted as our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa Krause meant a lot to my brother and me. Our family used to pick them up every Sunday and take them to church with us. Three times a year we would visit the beautiful Mitchell Park Conservatory – aka The Domes - in Milwaukee, WI. The Domes are known as Milwaukee’s “living landmark”, where you can experience a desert oasis, a tropical jungle, and a seasonal flower garden. My favorite of the three is the seasonal dome. As a child I loved to spend most of my time there. Grandma Krause would at times let the rest of the family go explore the other domes while she and I would soak in all we could in our favorite dome. Sometimes she would sit and knit while I strolled around close by, or I would sit next to her, watching her needles intently. Just as The Domes add cultural texture to Milwaukee, they provide the inspiration for this textured hat.
