When you are taken unaware by accoster people while shopping do you ever want to turn around and accost them back in some way that will make them question their profession? Yeah, me too.
My friend Nana Kaye, the one who learned to crochet just over a year ago, has brought accosting into a whole new world.
Nana Kaye does not accost with perfume samples.
Or food samples.
Or surveys.
Or solicitations for money.

This is your best yarn yet. You had me in stitches. My stomach is still in a knot. I bet you had a ball weaving this yarn. My hat’s off to you. Don’t throw a stitch as you place a frog hat on.
When I was in Chicago recently, Kevin and I went past a vintage shop that had a lot of hats like this in their window, but they were made of felt instead of crocheted. Does Nana Kaye have a relative in Illinois? I thought they were rather cute, and then Kevin took a picture of me and a fellow we met at an art gallery show opening and the oil painting of a big owl ended up looking like it was roosting on his head. Sounds to me like the whole country is going to the birds!

These must be the cutest most precious hats out there….bless her heart….at least she has something to displaces the fact that she has THREE TEENAGE DAUGHTERS…LOL
They are cute!!!! Why is she looking toward kids–I’m willing to bet she could get more adults to buy them–or parents of babies 🙂
I want an owl hat. Tell Nana Kaye that Angela Weight in Dublin, GA wants an owl hat. Unfortunately I’m not a child, but I act like one quite often. Just ask my husband and kids. Great piece. I laughed out loud with no one to share it with.
I love your stories! Thanks for the chuckle.
I have sisters who crochet. I asked one of them if she could crochet me a covering for my ball cap. She did and it fit perfectly. It also made my head sweat it was so warm. If they can imagine it, they can crochet it. Yes, bless her heart.
Whoa! Making the hats IS Nana’s therapy.
Too Funny!! You used words to knit a great story. Everywhere I go I see animal face hats with tassles on the ties on adults and kids.
Dare I ask? Can she make a heron hat? Or a hat for EB? Too cute!
Wanda, I live in Alabama AND have kids! lol I have three boys. My about-to-be-13 (on Sun 18th) prolly is too “cool,” but the 9 and 7 would prolly like em. lol 9 likes eagles, 7 monkeys. Or should I not enable her addiction? lol
