Pussy Hats
What a simple idea, to represent a strong political statement.
I made several. These 7 were sent to DC with my husband and daughter:
Here are the hats preparing to head to the walk (with their wearers also):
And, my beautiful daughter at this Historic event:
A sea of pink hats in DC. What an amazing statement that a group of crafters and social media can make.
Meanwhile, after sending these off, I had 3 more that I needed to make, in a short time:
These made their way to the Chicago march with 2 of my best buddies:
The photos from around the world are amazing. Pink ribbons of Chicago:
Hear us roar. It has just begun.

Amazing! Unfortunately Trump will try to convince people the numbers were reported incorrectly and has no clue that this was in response to his election. Thanks to Sofia and Dan for making the trip and you for making the hats. Did they run into Amber?

I haven’t talked with Sofia, but I doubt it. Sofia was going to text her during the event. Although in Chicago, people could not get cell service because of all of the people. Glad they all went. Amber looked really happy too.

Yes, it was an amazing event to be a part of. I have hope for the future working together with all these people. And knitters made a big impact!

A powerful statement by young and old. Now denying this.

I found a pink scarf and was so inspired by everyone. I am hoping legislators were paying attention !
