Hi Sis,

Thankfully, I did manage to finish one thing for the shop this week. It is another braided hood.

I also, started a red hood on Saturday night, and finished in Sunday afternoon!

All I could see was the front of the hood as I tied it on in front of the mirror. Nate however, took one look at it and said, “That looks cheap, I don’t think you should sell it. ” I didn’t expect this hood to really complete with my other style, but I figured it would be nice to have a cheaper hood alternative. However, after the photos, I have to agree. The hood style doesn’t function well as a hood, as it doesn’t stop cold air from getting to your head. And it looks terrible in the back. Sure, happy I cut up a scrap piece of wool, and not the pretty ruby red melton wool!

Looks good here. Then, I turn around.

I could fix the pattern. I think a little elastic around the frame of the face, and putting the hood casing up higher, and shortening the hood would make it nicer. But, frankly I don’t think it is worth the effort. 

Love,

Jamiegoof
