Remember I wanted to make a new hat
With the yarn from old hats I’d unravelled?
Remember I said Random Rose made a hat,
A beret with ridges she cabled?
****
Well I followed the pattern that Rose kindly shared,
Though the yarn had lost elasticity.
The needles I used were not quite the right size,
But I wasn’t going to let that stop me.
****
So I finished my hat and I’m pleased how it went,
Cream and purple go well together.
I admit it turned out bigger than it was meant,
For my head is decidedly smaller.
****
As luck would have it, Miranda’s got a big head,
Though not the metaphorical kind.
So I decided to give it to her instead,
And I honestly really don’t mind.
Very cute! Now I need a new hat! 😉

V: Do you do your own graphics? For the graphic novels/Web site? Curious – been thinking of venturing into some area such as this but it seems . . . overwhelming . . . learning how to design, use the software, etc.
Anyway, nice job on the hat!!

Thank you Erik 🙂 The artwork on here is all our own, simply drawn, scanned, edited on ‘Paint’ and uploaded. Not complicated. Is that what you meant?

Pretty much, yes. I was looking at a program called “Render” – vector graphics; the start screen alone is enough to induce a panic attack. So complex . . .
And, when you say Paint, this is the program that comes with Windows .. and is at paint.net ??
Thanks V.

Yes, it comes with Windows. I don’t know about paint.net, just used what was already on my computer. Hope you find something to suit you 🙂

. . . just wanted to say . . . it would help if I had any artistic talent whatsoever . . . I read/hear ‘anyone can learn to draw’ . . . which just makes me for frustrated because I think that should be ‘anyone can learn to draw except Erik’

Ha ha 😀 of course you can draw, maybe the hard part is learning to be happy with the way you draw. Enjoyment is key 🙂
