Early last month, a friend asked me to make a hat with a triangle on top, and very colorful. I thought about it for a bit, then got some yarn (and her ok for said yarn) and started crocheting. Once I finally started, it took about a day and a half to make this (no clue how many hours crocheting during that time; definitely more than six, anyway). Friday we made plans to meet at Inman Oasis so I could give her the hat. She's very pleased with it, and one of the women who was working the desk asked about my hats and whether I had a web site. I don't, exactly, but I had just gotten new Moo cards last week mostly featuring things I've made (food, hats, painted T-shirts, etc.), so I was able to give her one of those, and point her to my Ravelry site. She asked how much a hat like the January one would cost, and I didn't know what to say, really. That one took a lot of time, and three crochet hooks with the different sizes of yarn. (It was my first hat; while I might make a similar one, that one's not available.) Even if nothing comes of it, I'm excited that some random person likes them enough to ask! (And if anyone has suggestions for how to price things, I'd love to hear them.)

Also pleasing: I've already more than accomplished my goal of averaging a hat a month for the year: I've made 15 hats so far (six in August).
