Welcome to Vanilla Knits and Bits - bringing you adorable hats, beanies, caps, mittens, scarves and lots more, handmade by me - Leanne
My wide variety of beautiful, unique hats and other products are created for girls and boys of all ages and are generally sized between micro-premmie (000000) and teens (Please check the sizes listed for product as they do vary!).
Each of my product is lovingly handmade by me, so no two items are exactly the same - they all have their own touch of uniqueness which makes them that little bit more special than a store bought hat.
The great thing about handmade is you get to choose the hat YOU want in a style and colour YOU like, made from a high quality yarn that will last and last - can't see something you want, let me know and I will create a unique product, just for YOU!!
All of my woollen hats and other items are made from Australian grown 100% pure wool, 100% cotton yarn or wool/cotton blends. All my yarn is from Bendigo Woollen Mills and is grown in the central New South Wales region in Australia. It is Merino and Merino/Cross wool from 24 to 29 micron. The wool is very soft and not at all scratchy. Check out their website http://www.bendigowoollenmills.com.au/ to learn more and support Australian wool growers! I generally use wool from the Luxury, Classic and Serenade ranges, there is a huge colour range, take a look and request a colour that suits you for a hat or scarf!
I am also using Lily's Sugar n' Cream (a 100% cotton (10ply/Aran thickness - Aus/UK buyers!!)). It is a soft yarn that is very versatile, is great for hats and other clothing, all year round. There is a huge range of colours available - check out their website http://www.sugarncream.com/product.php and request a colour for one of my products!
