  Is there any other way you would feel comfortable getting in touch with people or taking orders? I’d absolutely love one of these hats, but don’t have a flickr account- would you be able to email me?

Any chance you can put up some directions to make something similar to this, for those that are sew inclined? *groan*

These are fantastic. How open are you to taking requests from we the shabby public?
I tried setting up a flickr account purely to contact you with a request but was unsuccessful in finding a mikest contact. Do let me know if you are in any way open to taking requests at the moment. I understand you may be hesitant, what with the potential of a deluge of requests. Let me know at navidval@gmail.com anyway.
You are some sort of sorcerer

@Junk – I’m thinking a CC licensed pattern of some sort could be in order. Thinking it over.

@navid – Thank you So, currently I’m being inundated from all sides with requests for squid hats. I had no idea!! I’m going to make a few more and then figure out what to do next.

I’m about to go on Thanksgiving vacation, I’ll get in touch with y’all once I get back around the beginning of December.

I love these! They are a lot like cowls, scary cult of the squid! Doing a google search there seem to be quite a few different squid hats out there. This one even has a free pattern!

I’d say the flood is a bit intimidating. Well, thanks for the reply and let me know about it whenever you get back.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I’d love to either purchase a hat or a pattern for the hat! Looks like your etsy site has been inactive for a few months, so I thought I’d try here.
