I (Michele) design and hand-crochet all of my items. My pricing is based on yarn costs, crocheting time, and Ebay & Paypal seller fees.
I currently have over 300 handmade scarves, buttoned neck warmers, hats, and curtain tiebacks listed on Ebay. In addition to the summer cowls and hats listed under this Ebay ID, I also have an Ebay store under our family Kdmsa4doq Ebay ID. To view more of my hand-crocheted items, please visit http://stores.ebay.com/Micheles-Handmade-Scarves
Yarn Content: 100% Cotton
Yarn Brand & Color: Lily Sugar N Cream in Faded Denim
Approximate Height from top of hat to beginning of brim: 6.5 inches/16.5 cm
Approximate Width of base of hat before brim starts: 10.5 inches/ 26.6 cm
Brim Width: 1.5 inches/3.8 cm
Thickness: 1/4 inch/ .65 cm
This hat is crocheted "in the round", so only one small seam at the top of the hat. The area in the back where I turn to start new rows will look a little different than the rest of the stitches (you can see this in the last photo).
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Can be washed in cool and dried in dryer, however I recommend either hand washing in cold water and laying flat to dry, or washing on a gentle cycle in a lingerie bag and drying only a few minutes in the dryer. The gentler washing & drying prevents the yarn from frizzing over time. Avoid washing with heavier garments that cause friction. If using washing machine, avoid washing with items that have zippers, buttons, etc that may snag the yarn loops and pull on them or make the yarn fray.
Note: All yarns come with some degree of "factory residue" that makes the yarn feel a little stiff. This will disappear with normal handling and/or the first wash, bringing out the true softness of the yarn.
U.S. SHIPPING:PAYMENTS:
I only accept Paypal. If you don't have a Paypal account, you will still be able to pay with a credit or debit card through Paypal. You can also pay from your bank account using an E-check (also through the Paypal system), but I won't be able to ship until the check has cleared, Paypal says it's okay to ship and allows me to print out a label.
RETURNS:
For now, I am not accepting returns, but am completely open to resolving any problems that may occur. I feel the best strategy is to head off any problems before they even happen. If you have any questions whatsoever about any items I am selling, please ask.
Thanks for looking! (:
