i'm thinking i've found a new project

my friend David took these pictures whilst on holidays in Rome...


i think they're hilarious.... who ever decided horses need ear warmers? and in Rome? it hardly gets cold there!

now here, here it gets cold (though not like it does back home in Canada.)


so, since i have mastered the art of making scarves (i made six as Christmas gifts), and am in need of a new project... i'm going to try to make these.





i don't know anyone who has horses who might need these, so if you do, please let me know. i will happily send them on to some horse who could use them.

am now off to search the net for estimates on horse ear circumferences and forehead sizes.













Post Script:
Looks like I missed the boat on this one... in looking for horse ear sizes, look what came up near the top of the list. A whole website dedicated to horse bonnets... sigh.




i'm still going to try to make one, just for kicks.
