anyone on here still make/sell tams? i'm looking for a wool one but i've been pretty unsatisfied with the ones i've been able to find on etsy and ebay so far
Home Grown I bought one from Alana at Home Grown through etsy a few months back, she has amazing customer service, she made me a custom tam with the exact colours I wanted and was really patient with my decisions. I HIGHLY recommend her!
I can crochet but have never made a tam before. I could try, but if you're overseas the postage will be an arse. How much were you willing to spend?
it was looking like hers were gonna be like 35 - 40 bucks, which is way too much. i was looking to spend like 20 - 25 at most
They do look like very friendly people who are willing to work with you, and have 100% positive feedback on 207 people... If that says anything.... Support the right people, and think how long it takes to make those and do a nice job, and how much they're making per hour at pretty (honestly) boring work.... All to bring you a cozy, cheerful hat, full o' good vibes.... /hippie
For $20-00 >>$25-00, All Your Going To Get Is One Made By Machine From China... Stop Being A Miserable, Miserly, Tight Ass, And Buy A Handcrafted Item Instead.... Cheers Glen.
yeah i'm probably just gonna bite the bullet and get one from her, i haven't been able to find anything good anywhere else. so many decisions to make on it though, color scheme, size, material. still no idea what colors i want, and as far as size i gotta find a balance between it being too loose and it being small enough that my hair will outgrow it shortly. kinda tempted to learn how to do it myself, but i'd probably suck at it, and my housemates would probably find it hilarious to watch me crocheting
If You Do Decide To Knit One Yourself, Just Promise GLEN One Thing.............. That You Will Post A Video Of You Sitting In Your Favourite Chair, With A Shawl On Your Lap, An Incontinance Pad In Your Crutch, And Your Teeth In A Glass On The SideTable.... Cheers Glen.
Thank you to everyone who backed me up! I love mine and it only cost me $27AUD. That included the month of correspondence with her about what colours and patterns I wanted. She is amazing!
