Selling hand-made Turtle-head hats and 3-fingered mittens!

a_big_apple · 04-23-2007, 03:57 PM

Hats with masks and three-fingered mittens, that is! Here's a pic of my friends and I wearing our gear to the new movie opening: (I'll post a link to a photo on my blog, because the photo I tried to post directly wasn't showing up)

http://bp0.blogger.com/_BATQaIgpIHE/...h/IMG_0266.JPG

It's a pretty huge photo, hopefully it won't take too long to load... if problems continue, let me know.

They're crocheted by me, turnaround time will probably be a week or so. You can't tell in the photo, but the masks have tails in the back that tie, and everything.

They're made-to-order, $25 per set or $80 for all four. I'll also consider trades, I'm looking to accumulate the DVDs of the original cartoon.

The colors may not be exactly as shown, because I've run out of those particular yarns, so let me know if you have a preference as to shade of green. Otherwise I'll probably go with the general shades they are in the 2003 cartoon.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or anything!

I posted a link to the photo instead, hopefully that works. See the original post for the link.

That was actually me, Roseangelo. Rachel's my dork partner-in-crime and the genius behind the crocheted hats. I'm just kind of there for spreading the photo-goodness on the internet.

The hats are wicked awesome, btw.

*Roseangelo* · 04-24-2007, 09:04 AM

Ah! Well, good job to you, then!

a_big_apple · 04-24-2007, 12:04 PM

Aha, I was wondering if you'd pop up to identify yourself....... Hehehe. Hooray for delurking.

Swany · 04-24-2007, 05:02 PM

Wow, very original idea. Fasionable and functional.

TMNTGuy · 06-21-2007, 08:25 PM

When you say "Set" do you mean head band and gloves to match?

a_big_apple · 06-21-2007, 10:08 PM

Yep, a set means a pair of mittens and a hat/mask.

**Machias Banshee** · 11-20-2007, 10:57 PM

That... is so GREAT!

I love it! That is such a clever idea...

maybe some knit plushies are in the near future?

sai of relief · 11-21-2007, 09:15 AM

Heya,

Just a few questions, the first probably being are really dumb one.

1. Do these things fit every size head? Or do we have to give you the size or dimensions of our own heads or something? Just I don't want to order a set to have it not fit.

2. Do you ship internationally? And if so do you accept paypal, because if not the only other way I'd be able to pay you is through a western union money order which I've heard can be a real pain to cash.

3. And also are non-traditional colours an option? I mean is it OK to get something with say black skin and pink bands.......... not that that's what i want, it's just an example.

Thankooos.

1. I'll ask for a couple of measurements, but they also stretch pretty well.

2. I'd certainly be willing to ship internationally, they're not very heavy, so it shouldn't be astronomical cost-wise. Paypal is fine, I have an account already.

3. If you have particular color requests, no problem! Shades of color are going to depend on what yarn I can find at the store, but if you give me specific guidance I'll try my best to match it. I'll also do the gloves with or without the colored wristbands, depending on whether you want a more OT look or not.
