The House Hat

House Hat
​Many years ago, Buffalo and a friend were having a conversation about home ownership. Buffalo said, I'll never be able to afford a house. The friend said, why don't you crochet one? Thus was born perhaps the most elaborate hat that Buffalo has ever created: the House Hat. I took photos of the House Hat back in the early days of this website but I was never really happy with the results. I finally revisited that hat today and took new photos.
​The House Hat is Buffalo's Winchester Mystery House. She frequently adds to it and it may never be complete. It has roof shingles and dormer windows and a chimney. There's a crow on the roof and a gopher in the yard. And a sprinkler attached to a hose attached to a faucet. There are weeds in the garden and a raccoon in the trashcan. Buffalo even decorated the interior of the house with wallpaper and lace curtains. I love the climbing roses on the front porch pillars.

This is all well and good, but can you actually wear it as a hat? Yes you can! Because of the flexible resiliency of raffia, you can mold it into a variety of shapes on your head.
