JULIET CAPULET Fascinator

Hello again!
When I was younger and studying William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, I never had trouble remembering Juliet's name because she wear a cap!!!

Fastens with a comb, which is attached in the front.

Hand stretched felt, hand made tiny silk flowers and hand embellishing on store-bought flowers. Gold netting attached in back, under flowers.

This is available for consideration, on Etsy!

More Fascinators.

I do hope you all enjoy seeing these as much as I do making them. Fascinators and hats are so fun to make. I do hope the less flamboyant ones catch on, here in the states.


Top two are the headband style fascinator and the bottom is a barrette style, which opens on the right side.

Thank you for stopping by. Please come again and let me know what you think. I'd love to know your thoughts regarding hats and fascinators.

I've Been Fascinated With Fascinators!

Best wishes to the happy newly weds!

Watching the hats -- I mean wedding really drove me crazy!!! All those beautiful fascinators... it was like the Red Carpet of Hats.

So very motivated, I threw together a couple of my own. The black one is my favorite, probably because it's not as flamboyant. The white with the dove is much larger and is as fun as it is big!!!!!!!!!








Thank you for looking. Looking forward to knitting some frames for more fascinators! How about fascinators for young girls, too?!!?

Finished Another Top-Down, Two At A Time Sweater

Hello again!
Finished this sweater using the same method as before; working the yoke (chest, back and shoulders) all at once, and then the sleeves both at once, with circular needles (no double points), no seams and only weaving the tails with tapestry needles.

This knitting pattern really couldn't be any easier!
