Maimusaid this morning, “Tiina, putSnowflake Hertaon your head. Then you will look like a ball of candyfloss, only clever.”Bimnodded with authority, as only cats can, and checked whether the brim matchedhisparasol. Naturally it did. The feline committee approved.
This is a hat forcrisp, not bitterly freezingweather. The airy stitch pattern breathes. If the cold starts biting, add a headband underneath and life is lovely again. The pattern holds its shape and the small brim adds charm. Your mood can do the rest. There are similar hats in shops, but “made by hand” is a little luxury you can wear every day.
If anyone asks why white, it is because white goes with everything. A milkshake? Works. A violently green coat? Works. Maimu’s floral shawl? That works too, though the shawl must ask permission first.Bimadds that the edge of the hat is the official landing strip for his ears. We do not recommend testing this, as the runway is closed to cats.
Bim put the hat on and, in his opinion, would win a Mr Cat competition.
