Where can I get a crochet baby hat?

I saw a luvly crochet baby/toddler hat in etsy but it's from someone based in Canada and it would take weeks to arrive. Does anyone know where I could get something similar from the UK?

i'm out of practice though. been doing felt stuff all year.
i do specialize in crochet hats though!
i'm shit at patterns to each one is wonky unique.

vacaloca · 06/11/2008 11:46

Oh no, you can't both do the same hat! How about one does the one for DS and the other one for DD2. Then I can buy both. Any idea how much that would be before I 'commission' you?
Purple - just saw the pics in your profile. You are one talented lady! I'm very .

purplemonkey do you have website or something to buy from? Your stuff is sooo cute!

purplemonkeydishwasher · 06/11/2008 11:50

thank you!

can i do one for you dd? i'm better at girls' hats. if i'm honest.
what colour would you like? or rather waht colours does she like?
(oh and i have a 3yo at home! i'll be better at that size! )

purplemonkeydishwasher · 06/11/2008 11:51

no website. i just do it for freinds mostly. but i do take commissions!

vacaloca · 06/11/2008 12:02

DS's head is 46cm circumference. Is that what you need? Oh hang on, TheGoat is doing DS's hat and she doesn't need measurements.

Purple - it'd be great if you can do DD2. She's not here at the moment so can't measure her but she's quite bigheaded too, literally and metaphorically. I'd be happy to trust you with colour combinations that would work. Her main coat is a sort of lime green. She's got dark hair and eyes so strong colours suit her, like red. Or perhaps a combination of brown and turquoise like one of the links I posted.

I'm ridiculously excited about this.

Oooh purple, what sort of things do you do?

I would love a hat, she has got millions but this would be a special one

purplemonkeydishwasher · 06/11/2008 12:13

oh awesome. will get started right away!

enchanted - i can crochet hats, scarves, blankets, toys
and you can see the felt shoes i make. though they are really only for little babies. not durable enough for big'uns!
and i';ve started to make felt gift boxes as well.

what are you in the market for?

purplemonkeydishwasher · 06/11/2008 12:13

oh hat. really. i should read the WHOLE post. dur.

TheGoat · 06/11/2008 12:30

purplemonkeydishwasher · 06/11/2008 12:34

TheGoat - I got the hat! It's lovely and DS looks so damn cute in it. I've been looking for the camera all afternoon to post a photo but can't find it. Will keep looking and hopefully post one tomorrow.
