Revision #1 (Last edited: 29/07/2008 @ 15:40)
Most of you that know me know that I have HUGE beanie addiction. So I came to the conclusion a few months ago that I had spent long enough feeding my out of control beanie habit and that it was time I did something about and that I had to learn to make my own.

I am a very new little beanie making venture and have been crocheting about 5-6 months now. I love challenging myself. I am currently learning how to put writing ('just married') into a hat for a guy who is getting married!

My little shop is ever growing but slowly at the moment as I have a bunch of custom orders on the go. Each Toqueanie comes with a 'Toqueanie' label attached, these will be with me late next week.

If you're interested in 100% handmade beanies at all please check out my site or email me with your ideas.

Cheers, Dani

Stick with it lady! Like i mentioned in my PM that time. Because I am a leftie I had noone to teach me the 'backwards' way so to speak, so I just had to be patient and perservere!

Bob: I had an email from the Label lady and they will be done in the next few days. They're being sent to my dad then onto me. He will send them as a gift which means no extra tax when they come into Canada! Can't wait to see your best catalogue pose!

Chewy: I like your style! Must be Mojito themed!

It depends on the style but 2-3hours aprox.

I have some woven labels arriving I am told next week aswell, so they're finished off properly.

What what Mr Bods desire? Just fire me an email if and when you're ready buddy

I am stoked to have just finished the mammoth & frustrating task of adding 'Just Married' to a Toqueanie

So I am now open to custom hats with lettering intergrated. 11 letters is really the most I can fit onto a hat, unless your noggin is supersize.

This is my first hat with lettering so please be gentle
