Community Spotlight: Hats for Days

Welcome to Community Spotlight, where we’ll be showing you highlights from our Customer Gallery. To be featured in the gallery, simply post a picture of your Lion Brand creations to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #lionbrandyarn. We’ll be choosing some of our favorites to post to the blog.

Wow — you’ve all embraced the approach of fall, because this week the gallery was full of lovely hats. Knit and crochet, kids and adults, simple and advanced, every sort of hat was represented! It’s actually fitting that we’re posting this today, because September is Fall Hat Month.

There were so many we couldn’t feature them all, so here are ten of our favorites, and be sure to check out the rest in the Customer Gallery.

I think I want to be a Gnome for Halloween this year. It is never too early to start working on a costume. #ToOrTooINeverCanBeSure #gnomeifyouwantto #gnomearoundtheworld #youknowwhatgnomesarelike #gnomeabouttown #takemegnometonight #ohgnomehedidnt #ohgnomehebetterdont #gnomelife #gnomehat #gnomelove #gnomemorehashtags #gnomesofinstagram #gnomeselfiecontrol #gnomebodyknowsthetroublesiveseen #thisisthelifeiamliving #halloweencostume #yarnporn #yarnwhore #menwhoknit #menthatknit #lionbrandyarn #lionbrand #lionbrandyarnstudio #lionbrandstudio #noselfiecontrol #hashtagiloveahashtag #hereahashtagthereahashtageverywhereahashtag #getyourballsout #ionlydoeasystuff
