For Fall I’m offering a $1.00 discount on each of my two new hat patterns, Open Rose and Hugs. Just buy the pattern and the discount is automatic until November. Nothing says Fall like a pretty hat!!
In the summer I love my garden with all its wonderful color and heavenly smells, the lavender, the Chocolate Cosmos (yes, a flower that smells like chocolate!), Jasmine and most prominently the roses. Roses are beautiful and the ones that smell so heavenly are the ones I love so much. This hat resembles the rose petals around the edges of an open rose. What a wonderful hat to wear in winter to remind me of my summer garden.
