Making a Probiotic Ginger Beer. Easy Knit Hat Pattern. Checkpoint Charlie Hat. This is a copy of a hat my friend Doc Pop brought back from (East) Germany. He got it near Checkpoint Charlie so that's what he calls it; to me it looks more like the hat Governor Tarkin is wearing when he gets insulted by Princess Leia. But either way it's cool. I made this from a thrift store blazer, rather than buying fabric new.
It cost about $9 (in expensive San Francisco) and I'll get another 2 hats from it, easily. If you have fallen in love with yardage, you'll need about a third of a yard -- but take the pattern to the store and lay it out there to be sure. For the brim, I use a piece of flexible clear plastic of the kind blister packages are made from. Many packages have large flat areas from which the plastic can be reclaimed, although a lot are just too closely molded to the product. The only other material needed is a yard or so of quilt binding or wide bias tape for the inner hat band. Update: pix of one made from paper! Man Bag (Murse) made from old pants!

Sneak peek: tara mangini & percy bright. I’ve been awaiting this peek for quite a while. Ever since we saw a little of the spectacular transformations that Tara Mangini & Percy Bright accomplished on this 1915 Philadelphia row house (See Before & After: Percy’s Home Transformation Part 1 and Part 2), I was anxious to see the entire home.
The couple has exquisite taste. Together they run Jersey Ice Cream Company, primarily selling vintage housewares and furniture. At Brimfield, Grace, Kate and I stumbled upon the couple’s booth, and Grace took home a beautiful vintage bench purchased from the pair. It can be difficult to make vintage finds feel cohesive, but Tara and Percy have created a home that feels serene and lived in. Thanks, Tara & Percy! And a big thank you to Tara for the lovely photos! Image above: All original doors and trim.
