Innocent Smoothie hats for Age Uk

Post by kate egg »

I set myself a challenge to make 50 hats, some are simple and some are more fun. If you want to see them all here is a link http://s163.photobucket.com/albums/t297 ... ie%20Hats/ :-D

Amazing. Did you make them? Very clever.

Very inventive. Fun. Such a lot of variations on a theme. Can't decide if I prefer the bonnets or the pineapple.....or all the animals.
Er... why innocent smoothie....and what's it got to do with Age UK?
Are you sure they're not finger puppets? Or Christmas tree decorations.

Most are out of my head (argh! just shows what a scary place that is yike* ) and some are patterns from their website.

The campaign is in its 3rd or 4th year, every IS drink that is sold with a hat on IS send 25p to Age UK, I think it is only Sainsbys that sell them.
