> Hats

All kinds of hats have been piled up during the years, so I thought to dedicate a page for them. Yup, hats are cool 8) Obviously, I won't put all the hats here or even find a proper translation for everyone of them, but here are some to take a look at.


"Paddington"

The name comes from a cartoon bear character who wears quite a similar hat sometimes. I don't wear this anymore as it's too small for me.


 


"Mummokotsa"/"Granny hat"
I found this from a flea market. Most likely it's formerly owned by a grandma, hence the name.
 
"Kakkilakki"/"Poo cap"
Also found from a flea market. Well, I guess you can see why it's called a poo cap ;)
         

"Tupsumyssy"/"Tassel cap"
This is my favourite winter hat because of that cute tassel. It cost only 1€!
 
"Ranskis"/"French fry"
A regular wool beret for women. I also have a black version of this which I wear more often. I got this one for free \o/
 
"Landekotsa"/"Boondocks cap"
This one reminds me of a cap countrymen use to wear. I do like countryside myself.
         

"Irkkulippis"/"Irish cap"
I have many caps but this one earns to be shown because it's related to Ireland :)
 
"Valkopipa"/"White stocking cap"
I used to wear this on summertime, but once after a wash it shrinked quite a lot :(
 
"Kesälätsä"/"Summer cap"
Another 1€ cap, found from a flea market.
         

"Hippimyssy"/"Hippie stocking cap"
I call it that because of the flower in it. Yeah, I'm a hippie of some sort.
 
"Ernesto "Che" Guevara cap"
I got this from a Brazilian online friend. Thank you, missy! You rule \o/
 
"Crocheted stocking cap"
I bought this from the capital city, Helsinki. The seller (who was a foreigner) gave me discount even though I didn't ask for it :)
         

"Crocheted stocking cap #2"
Bought from a hawker. It has nice colors, but I rarely wear it.
