Excuse Charlie - almost all my hats I've knit from hand-dyed, hand spun yarns. That seems to be what sells. On occasion, I've made hats from natural colored wools, but they haven't exactly jumped into shopping bags. But now I have a Christmas commission and it's for natural colored yarns.
These are the two that I have completed so far. I am pleased, because the patterns that I have worked on in the variegated colored yarns have been completely unsuccessful on the natural colored yarns. In fact, viewing a WIP last month, Amy quipped that sometimes the best solution is to rip out and start over. The hat that judicious comment was directed to is on the left. I love the hat and am glad I listened to her.

Gosh - I'll have to work on my tactfulness. The results are beautiful, though!
very good blog, congratulations
regard from Reus Catalonia
thank you
mmmm...Ilove them both! the left one is really unusual and creative. I like!
So nice and unique. I do like all your hats. Natural colors from shetland wool can't be beat.
Very nice :)
Wow, the natural wools with your creative patterns are the ones I am most attracted to! I love color but actually tend to wear a lot of neutrals. Your hats are fantastic.
