Attention crocheters you too can get in on the fun of making hats for the homeless and displaced. Theresa offers this step-by-step tutorial on how to make a large size beanie cap for a man. You can also find numerous other videos as well as printed patterns on her The Art of Crochet site. http://crochet-mania.blogspot.com/
Interested in participating but not sure how to knit? Check out Vickie Howell's "how to" video. Vickie Howell talks about the partnership between Lands End and Warming Families for the hat challenge.
Well the hat challenge is on. At the beginning of September we added 41 hats. Can we double that number by the end of the month? I'm sure we can. Check back at the end of the month to see how well we did. Send me your pictures and tales about making the hats and I would be happy to upload the pictures and comments to this site. Remember the hats can be made from any pattern, the key thing is that they are warm.
