‘Let’s start a Hat Club!’, says Sally after she became the proud owner of my hot-off-the-needles Spicy Stripy Beanie. ‘Like Father Ted and the Lovely Girls’, she says. So just like that we now have a hat club, so come and meet some of the Feck, A***, Drink, Girls and their Hats. And boys too of course!
And if you’ve never seen Father Ted, you’ll understandably think I’m bonkers.

Trisha in her pink tweed beanie, all set for walking the dogs

Catherine looking all ‘come hither’ in her navy Bug Beanie

‘The red matches my new DM’s!’ Sally the brainchild of FTLH

Amber looking stunning in yellow felt

Andrew’s hat matches his retro style perfectly

Ash was delighted with her unique Charlie Brown hat. So was her son Robin. Guess who has the hat now?

Stuart looking very mischievous. That’s his second pompom – the cat demolished the first one.

Breege not afraid to go bright red with a big bow

Tony (my dad) still wearing the beanie I knit him in 1974

Anna in her studio, looking all artisty in her new beret. She could have knit her own, but really, really wanted to be in our club!

Babs chose a fair isle beanie (a birthday present from Suzy) so she can keep her head warm and look stylish while she’s out and about, grooming all the doggies and making them beautiful.

Suzy has an Instagram page called Black Moth and this bug beanie was the closest thing I had. I think she’s happy with it.
