They have this charity event called “St. Baldrick’s.” It’s an event where a bunch of people collect money for kids with cancer and then shave their heads in solidarity with those kids.

Do you like me? Or do you dislike cancer? Or do you just want to support me getting a haircut? Please donate money.

Would you like to really donate money? I’ll shave it off for the right price. What’s the right price? (I guess that I can’t enable answers on this post, you’ll have to reblog).

Upcycled: T-Shirt ——> Custom Hat

Upon the advice of my dear friend Margaret, I am now listing a custom order on Etsy: send me your used t-shirt and I’ll knit a custom hat out of it.

The Etsy listing is here.

The hats turn out WAY better than (even I) expected. Soft (the softer the shirt) and stretchy, and good for all-season wear. I love these hats (and I’m my own worst critic).

I listed on Etsy another upcycled cuff. The last one sold (albeit to someone I know — when I created the Etsy shop, I didn’t expect friends and family to buy(!), NO pressure, just FYI).

This one has green and sweet little gold beads.
