Once again, we had a great time at the Love Cap Party and have collected about 2600 items. Next week will bring a big post with pics and commentary about the goings on, but today I’m issuing an ornament SOS.
In three weeks, I will be at the Pink Palace Museum decorating the Love Cap tree for the festival of trees and we do not have nearly enough knitted or crocheted ornaments! How embarrassing would it be for half the Mid-South to see a pitiful Love Cap Tree? We just can’t let that happen.
Since the scarcity of ornaments became apparent after last Sunday, I have made four Santa Hats and will be cranking out more this weekend. Can you help me out?
Last week’s post had links to lots of ornament patterns and ideas. Since then I have found a few more.

The Festival of Trees is always well-attended so let’s make sure our tree is up to par this year! Ornaments should be at MIFA or in my hands by Monday, November 10. Love Cap knitters and crocheters are the best so I know I can count on you!

Hi Sarah, I will make some ornaments – I really like the Teddy Bear and I have the Chenille so I will make 2 or 3 of them. The patterns says it is 4 inches tall so will that work? I’ll also look for another pattern or two. Let me know when to get them to you. M.A.

Thanks Mary Alice! 4″ bears are fine. I really appreciate your help.
Ornaments need to be at MIFA or in my hands by Monday, Nov 10. If you need me to come and get them, let me know. sterry *at* mifa *dot* org.
