They all close with Velcro fasteners that are glued with washable fabric glue. Mention item and name in your claim.

SHOP CLOSED

I'm located in California, and no pet nor smoke.  However, I live with my BIL, who does smoke.  He smokes OUTSIDE, but as I'm sensitive to Cigarette smells if he comes into the house freshly from smoking the cigarette smell lingers for a bit, but he's not home too often.  I don't ever smell smoke on my craft items, but i feel that since I am super sensitive to smells I should disclaimer that plus i feel like each home smells differently anyway, so things coming from other houses will just have a smell, but that is just me.

Thanks for shopping, I hope there is something that you like!

Cabled Kids Hat... Maybe you know of a child who would rock this hat, then this is for you!  Color choice:  Vanna's Choice  130 Honey, Red Heart Soft Yarn Seafoam, Red Heart Soft Yarn Brown like the owl hat below. 



a close up better picture of the owl hat, this one is just for picture purpose.
Brown Owl hat in Red Heart soft yarn, these might be the best acrylics out there in my opinion.  these will be made to order, I will be cranking these out when claimed.

For the two hats above, the colors that are available are, Red Heart Soft Yarn Brown (pictured in hat), Red Heart Soft Yarn Seafoam, Vanna's Choice 138 Honey. Red Heart fleck  I recommend these 4 as they are soft, and the colors are nice.


If you are looking for other colors, please PM me, I may have it, but do not guarentee the quality of the yarn, if you are looking for other colors, I will search my stash for something that seems suitable, and will photograph yarn if need be.  thanks for the claim.
