Jamaica Mon!

As my previous post noted, I am now being asked to make things for our friends. Some of our old friends in NYC asked for a very wonderful favor. Their son was turning 1 and was to have an island themed party on Halloween. What better for an island theme than a rasta tam. His mom is Jamaican so it was only fitting! I had no pattern and only a picture to go on. This was the first time that I made something completely without an idea of a pattern. However, it turned out fantastic! I think I'll make a few more for adults - they make a great Halloween costume. My darling husband was a wonderful model since he has such a small head! I even included a picture of the birthday boy.
