Caution...A Head

Okay, sorry about the bad joke. I am a juggler so bad humor comes naturally to me.

Still have that N hook from some of the past projects? Pull that sucker out, this and another hat I will post soon use it.
 During the holiday season people on the road seem to be preoccupied. That is why I am so happy that I found Hobby Lobby's I <3 This Yarn NEONS! I made this cute hat from it to give me a little more visibility when I am out on my daily walks.


Ozzy helped me today. He is getting so big :)
