It’s nowhere near knitting season, but I’m thinking of thick, red chenille yarn. There’s something here that reminds me of a hat I made a couple of winters ago… velvety, soft, voluptuous. Yes — they’re raspberries! And oh my they’re good.

If you’re lucky enough to have small fingers and/or if you’re a kid, you can pretend that they (the fingers) are little people and put fuzzy red hats on their heads! And then scare the bejeezus out of ’em by biting them off. Ah, little finger people. How skittish you are!

Anyway, if you’re lucky enough to get a package of perfectly ripe, organic lovelies like I did, you will be very happy with the taste of the headwear.
