Tomorrow (Noon - 6pm on Sun, 27 March 2011): Lovecraft Bar's 1st Love Craft Fair.

So, sometimes synchronicity strikes like lightning. Yesterday, my fave hat finally left the planet for good while on mini-walkabout w/[livejournal.com profile] jaylake beneath the most amazing 'n' bright double-rainbow I've ever experienced. We retraced our steps all the way back to the Hive in search of it, but to no avail. *sigh*

You all know the hat, it's what decorates my noggin in my default LJ icon (and has kept me warm for the past several years, even since my previous hat disappeared in Ross(well) whilst shopping for flannel sheets). It's been adorned the past couple or so years w/the fab knit Cthulhu that [livejournal.com profile] delerium3 got for me at 2009?'s HPLovecraft Film Fest & CthulhuCon. I'd in turn adorned this cute Cthulhu w/the tiny Canadian maple leaf pin I got last Fall during my fab b-day Canadian Rockies grand adventure w/[livejournal.com profile] lightfoote. Many MANY times IT tried to escape - starting the very first evening I wore it - and now it's succeeded. *sigh* (Hmm, in retrospect, I think the rainbow was its signal that 'twas time to leave.)

Then, though, about 1/4 hour after returning home from a delightful time out 'n' about last night, I heard from [livejournal.com profile] ferociousbcycad about the Love Craft Fair at the Lovecraft Bar that's happening TOMORROW. Whee-yay! What better place to find a replacement knit Cthulhu?! And I'd already been planning to check out the Lovecraft Bar tomorrow (on [livejournal.com profile] jaylake's reco. And [livejournal.com profile] ebony_sphynx knitted me a fab hat for this past x-mas!

All will work out for the best, in this best of all possible worlds.

And I'd happily knit you a less wild hat for more frequent wear if you would like...something like your old one with the ear flaps and ties...Thoughts? I would love your head measurement if i'm going to do this though since guessing can take a toll on my nerves. And colour preferences would be nice too. Loving you...sorry for your loss.

Oh, m'dear, the wildness of the hat makes if PERFECT for frequent wear, TMM*! I don't mind looking a bit silly (since I AM ;-) Yesterday I got several very positive comments on it. One woman asked if'n 'twas an Oregon Country Fair hat. Having head measurements would be good though as it tends to flop/slip off just a bit when I wear it. And ties're pref'd for all my hats nowadays, since otherwise I'm even more prone to losing 'em. *sigh* Luckily this new marvie one you made for you has the button for tying it down. I just haven't quite figured out yet how best to attach it to my body when it's not adorning my head.

I do note that I'll be down yonder in just a few weeks if'n you wanted to snag my measurements for any later projects then. You are SO sweet :-)

It's gonna be SO good to see you again!

That reminds me, I may have mentioned this before but my father was the set designer on the locally made independant film "Strange Aeons: The Thing On the Doorstep", an adaptation of one of Lovecraft's stories. Maybe it will be shown?
