Women's Bright Lipstick Red Pussy Cat Hat, Summer Lacy PussyHat Lightweight Soft Acrylic Crochet Knit Solid Red Thin Beanie, Resist, Ready to Ship in 3 Days
Handmade Lacy Lightweight Crochet Vibrant Solid Red Women's Pussy Cat Hat Soft & smooth solid red summer lightweight hat with cat ears. I used a high quality 100% acrylic yarn that's extremely comfortable. The color is called Red, a vibrant solid red. This yarn has a subtle sheen. My camera always struggles with this particular yarn color, always adding a lot of orange to the color, and even after photo editing, I can never get the color quite right. In most types of lighting, this red color is a nice, vibrant primary red. As the weather begins to warm up, I thought it would be a good idea to have some thinner cat hat options in addition to the warm winter ones I've been making. I used a soft and delicate thin yarn along with an openwork design. The hat only weighs two ounces. Yarn Content: 100% Acrylic Yarn Brand & Color: Caron Simply Soft in Red Approximate Height: 7.5 inches/19 cm Approximate Width (when hat is lying flat): 9.5 inches/ 24 cm Thickness: 1/4 inch/ .65 cm SIZE: The hat in the photos will fit best on a head size of 22" (56 cm). I will be offering size variations based on head size, please pick whichever is closest to your size. Crocheted fabric always has some give/stretch. The mannequin In the photos has a head size of 22 inches/55.8 cm and the hat fits snugly on her but not tightly. For small changes in size I do not charge any extra. This hat is crocheted "in the round", so only one 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 sixth 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. U.S. SHIPPING: I keep shipping to a minimum and offer First Class Package as the best value for price & speed. For multiple orders, I often use Priority Mail. For Ready to Ship items, I'll ship within two business days. For items made to order, I'll ship as soon as I have the scarf finished (within the time-frame stated in the listing title). I use the PayPal/USPS integrated shipping system whenever possible, so you will be provided with a delivery confirmation number by email from PayPal and/or Aftcra. Most First Class packages take two to five days to be delivered. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I always combine shipping for multiple orders. I most commonly use USPS First Class International for shipping outside of the US. First Class International may take a longer time to arrive than other services, but it's much more affordable than Priority International (which usually runs $25 or more for a few ounces). Delivery time for international packages is usually 5 to 15 business days. Customs, bad weather, or national holidays can sometimes slow down a package with the occasional shipment taking around 30 days to arrive. This only happens to about 5% of my international shipments. (: In the last four years, USPS has raised prices significantly for First Class International, in some cases more than doubling the amount they used to charge before 2013. On a positive note, as part of that price increase, they include tracking and delivery confirmation as part of the First Class service for almost all the countries I ship to. To keep shipping costs down, I will use lightweight polymer shipping envelopes as often as possible. For multiple items, I may find a cardboard box is best. International Buyers Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. PAYMENTS: I 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! (:
