The hat size is Medium to Large.
The actual measured size is 9.5 inches long and 15 inches around in the open stitch area; it stretches.
The yellow part of the cap is 90% Cotton and 10% Cashmere sport-weight yarn by Autumn Wind.
The slightly modified pattern was free.
The green yarn was used in an original design using 100% washable, hand-dyed in Peru 4-ply wool Marino yarn by Ríos Malabrigo.
To clean or retighten the yarns, wash by hand and dry flat on a table or trivet.
The “Labor of Love” invested for most crocheted hats is three to four hours.
Cost is $22.50 plus shipping
Jacquie Omi (Omi = Grandma in Galician) often sits outside on the patio of the Summerland Permaculture Project near Malacatos, Loja, Ecuador, South America. Typically, she draws inspiration from nature. In the radiant sunlight. Usually, she selects two or three colors of natural yarn to design and create something. She is an expert fiber artist and a retired professor of exceptional students. She encourages the natural touch of native yarns to ease stress from anxiety, pain, depression, isolation, grief, fear, and other physical or emotional challenges, as well as the assurance that the hands are on natural products. Each hand-crocheted item is made from strong yet soft natural fibers. All her work invites you to touch, smell, twist, stroke, or handle in various ways, and to pack it into a small space, only to unpack it and renew your ecologically conscious lifestyle.
Overpayments will receive a letter for a U.S. tax deduction. Barter, time payments, & other purchase options may be available via contacting Summerland at summerlandvolunteers@gmail.com
