The Hat is starting to take physical form

Being a bit of a bear in nature I really should be hibernating by now

The wind has dropped but snow has landed on the eastern coast of Scotland and England

The cold gets into my bones and the dark nights depress me

Apparently it's a disorder, SAD (seasonal affective disorder).

A time to go within and conserve my energy

Do I up the dose of the pills I take for my nervous disorder

see I shouldn't be blogging in this mood, but it's been weeks now...

might do some more pix of my hat plans.

I think white felted wool and Urnes style Viking Art sewn (or stencilled and sewn )on the outside

plus the longship curls at the back - not sure I can sneak my snow bees in anywhere here and my ice floes and ice flowers

oh yes and if you want to make a hat - get a head

wooden, polystyrene, anything cos I'll only end up sticking pins in my own one day
