My daughter wants to be a flower fairy for Halloween so I made this hat to go with her costume. I love the purple yarn but I bought it second hand and discovered it had been stored with moth balls so that was an adventure getting the smell out. I think it is ok now! I might add a ribbon to help cinch it around her head, I think a little bow would look nice. You can’t really tell here but I added sparkly purple thread to make it extra magical. I hope she likes it!
Aww, it’s adorable
I wonder does a solution of baking-soda-in-water work for removing that, from fabric?
It’s beautiful work, btw, nice!

Baking soda sounds like a good idea (luckily I haven’t had to deal with mothballs too often so I haven’t tried that one!) I went with vinegar rinses and sunshine. On the plus side… no signs of moths!
