Glacier Hat
Brrrrr! The inspiration for this hat came from the yarn itself, obtained in a swap with Counting Mermaids. As I began it, the colors reminded me of the melting summer glaciers in Glacier Lake in the Yukon, pale greens and blues and cloudy whites.




I finished the top and earflaps with Lamb's Pride Bulky in Creme doubled with a sparkly, rickracky yarn called Muench Bella Donna in Teal.


I found a great bead store in NYC, to get some icy looking stone and glass beads to frost the glacial look.


This hat is just begging for a blizzard and aurora borealis.

very pretty
I love this- great color and I love the beads.
I just found out about your hat from Whip Up's competition, and I think it is great. I love the colour and the style.
I want one so bad! I think I'm going to have to make my own, I hope you don't mind.
Great job!
Pretty colors, and I love the beads - little ice crystals!
It's melting . . . fabulous! The color, the yarn texture, the beads, the long ropy melty bits -- love it all.
Wow! Love the yarn, and I LOVE LOVE the beads! Great hat!
