Mama Bear
I have gone absolutely batty insane crazy for crocheting hats this past week! No joke: in the past week I have crocheted no less than ten hats! It started last Thursday when I sat down to try out a little dino-ridge beanie for the boyfriend’s toddler nephew. I was so thrilled with the way it turned out that I made another one for his sister…then just went wild thinking of all the kids in my life who I now believe are in dire need of crocheted beanies.
In keeping with the theme of supporting the independent markets this holiday season, I am offering these custom hats for order. Take a look at my styles in the gallery below. If any of those babies float your boat, send me a message via my contact page letting me know what you want* and I will whip it out and ship it off to you. Prices range from $25 – $35 depending on the style and customization. I can also make any of the embellisments (ears, etc.) removable and interchangeable. So, for example, if you can’t decide which style you dig, you can get a base beanie (with no embellishments), then get matching removable ears so you can sport them when you’re feeling silly and take ‘em off when you’re not 
In super-exciting-addition, to get this hat party started, I would like to open a giveaway of the “Mama Bear” hat I am sporting in the picture above! It would make an excellent Christmas gift…or keep you warm while Christmas shopping! You are welcome encouraged to enter as many times as you want, and the lucky winner will be selected at random next Friday! Here’s how to enter (any one or more of the following):
