2025 brings an exploration into Starfish!
And you will find the colors of the North Atlantic Starfish on my lightweight Oceania crocheted summer hats made with a variety of cottons, rayons, light weight and fibers that bring the reflection of sun on water! The North Atlantic Starfish range from tans through brown, oranges and occasionally violet.
A further exploration took me to starfish from around the world. I have been playing with the colors of starfish and now find that somewhere there are starfish of very color, shape and a wild variety of pigmentation. More on that leter.
In the meantime, swing by The Maine Art Collective and try on the Oceania hats, Maine Landscapes or wild Sunflowers!
The first hats have been uploaded to my Etsy site:

 Wensleydale WarmWensleysdale fleece in two styles, the top is Wensleydale fleece that has been put into a roving and hand spun into a very smooth but the textured yarn. The Wide brim is tea dyed white Wensleydale fleece that was spun from the locks. When spinning with roving it is a continous movement. Spinning from the locks requires stopping with each lock that is added, separating the lock and spinning it onto the one before. I LOVE the fabric and it stretches and it snuggly. |  IMG_6641_editedThe young woman found her hat first and as I pulled out the sunflower hat, she and her other friend started calling out, "He loves green!" As he, took the hat and broke into a great smile! |  Sunflower hatTwo hand dyed Merino Wools combine create the green base for this fun Sunflower hat for extroverts. It draws them in! Petals and flower center are also hand dyed Merino wool. |

Thank you for stopping by for a visit! I love making hats and even more, love, love, love making people smile. The making of hats is often a solitary process but I enjoy meeting with all of you at shows and events. It's a treasure to me when one of you find your fit, the hat that snuggles your head and makes you smile. Enjoy checking out folks that have enjoyed getting hats through the years!
A crocheter since the age of seven, I delight in the colors and textures of all landscapes, flowers and fibers, from the luxurious hand dyed and handspun mohair, alpaca, merino, silk and more.
Crocheting catches my imagination, as does a spider as it weaves its' web. Out of air a single strand silently moves through a delicate pattern and creates a thing of beauty. It provides the opportunity for your hook and yarn to dance, to flow with its' own inspiration with ease.
The various yarns, nature, flowers, other hats, requests, and wondering what would happen if have inspired my designs. Very often a hat begins with my idea of what it will be but sometimes the yarn ideas of its own, this is not for me to control but to follow. No Repeats Fiberworks hats are a collaboration of energy.
I greatly appreciate it when people request a specific design or color. It's a fun process to explore their ideas and create their own "No Repeats."
