The Pursuit of Happiknits!!!

When I woke up this morning and saw the white sky I knew without even looking that it was snowing. Ugh...I do not like snow or the cold unless I am at a ski resort! Despite my dislike of the cold, I do like shopping for fun and trendy accessories for keeping me warm! I have a few pairs of gloves and many scarves but I did not have a hat. Ok that is not true, I have hats but they are mostly used for when I run and not something I would wear out shopping! The first place I decided to look was Etsy in an attempt to find a cute knitted hat to match my off white scarf and gloves. One seller in particular popped into my head immediately, Becca of Happiknits! This seller is a fellow member of my EtsyNJ Street Team and the creator of the most amazing hand knitted accessories I have ever seen. Her items and photos are so beautiful that whenever I am able to snag an etsy treasury I always work one of her pieces in. Since I have recently learned how to knit, I appreciate her work even more! I had the opportunity to meet her in the spring of last year and not only is she an amazing seller but she is a fabulous person! I didn't see any hats listed in her shop that were what I was looking for, so I reached out and asked for a custom hat order. She was more than happy to work on it for me and without me even giving her a picture of what I wanted, she created the EXACT hat I was looking for! I was like a kid waiting for it to arrive in the mailbox. The items was packaged in green and white tissue paper and tied together with a piece of yarn! So cute! When I saw the hat in person I was in awe. The stitching is perfect and the quality of the yarn is top notch! And this morning when I put the hat on to take my daughter to school, it kept my head super warm! Here is a pic of took of me wearing the hat as a customer appreciation photo for her!

If you think this hat is cool, it is nothing compared to the rest of the items in her shop. She has scarfs, cowls, shrugs, caplets, hats, and fingerless gloves in pretty much every color you can think of. Each are handmade and knitted so beautifully using high quality yarns. So if you are in the market for some fabulous accessories to keep you warm as the temperatures are dropping across the country, look no further than Happiknits, you may actually want the weather to stay cold so you can wear your accessory from her all of the time!
