[MR] dare ya....funky hat

[RoxyGreenstreet at aol.com]

Hmmmmm, entirely of square knots.........I would venture to  guess this hat 
could be done in a macrame technique (yeah, I know it sounds  wrong but macrame 
is VERY period, provided one is not making plant holders with  wooded beads) 
over a form, using bobbins.  Since there is a textural  effect the knots would 
have to be of different sizes to get that  effect.  I wonder if more thread 
(parts of line) would be needed to make  the fatter knots.
 
     The decorative rod shaped bits on the  face of the hat are very likely a 
macrame technique still used to  day.
 
     Hey, how would such a hat look on  ME?
 
     Instead of a wolf or such, I would  get a tin Laurel to pin on 
it......hey, yuse guys, yousa wanna see mya  doc-u-menta-tion?
