In Florida, it is pretty rare to see people wearing hats other than baseball hats. I’m not really sure why. Maybe it’s because it’s normally so hot that covering your head just makes you hotter. For me, the few times I have worn one has been to keep the sun out of my eyes, but today I woke up to 33 degree temperatures!

I have my hands and neck ready with my new scarf and gloves. In fact, I’ve made a few pair of gloves now. I made another red pair for a friend and a blue pair for me so that it looks better with the scarf. But now I’m thinking about a hat, maybe something like this beret from the free patterns section at Lion Brand Yarn. Anything tighter around the head would create a major “hat hair” issue. This type of hat might work, and while I’m sure I’ll turn a few heads (forgive the pun), it will probably be out of jealousy because I’ll be so warm (except from Yankees who think we are all crazy for even thinking this is cold weather)!
