One was a man the other a woman. Neither understood this. If I could crotchet I would try to make a rainbow kitty hat. Also thanks for sharing your wonderful patterns. The lady who made mine made some for her young daughter and sent me a pic. I asked if her daughter liked it and she said when her daughter plays outside she can't get her to wear a hat but since she has a kitty hat she never refuses to wear one. So you did a good deed :)The_Vamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11400897666200723598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071312984049059488.post-18905126712117311932017-02-11T13:44:25.451-05:002017-02-11T13:44:25.451-05:00I'm sorry to hear about your experience at wor...I'm sorry to hear about your experience at work. Some people need to understand that it's just a hat. I think people sometimes jump to outrage and offense at things because it is easier to be upset than to move on. I support your decision to fight them on this. It's just a hat. It could be pink because you like pink or support breast cancer awareness or support the women's march or any or all of the above. I mean, how would they respond to someone wearing a rainbow hat? Everyone likes rainbows. :)Feliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00266151122882385409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071312984049059488.post-12525203214014323322017-02-11T11:05:44.834-05:002017-02-11T11:05:44.834-05:00Hello, as a cat lover I wanted this hat in a few c...Hello, as a cat lover I wanted this hat in a few colors. I didn't really want these as a political purpose but had nothing against it. I found a sweet woman online who offered to make me some for free. I bought Red Heart soft touch yarn in 3 colors, country rose, lavender and light heather from Walmart.com and had it shipped to her Walmart for pickup. All 3 hats are lovely and I work as a merchandiser at Walmart. Yesterday I wore the country rose hat to work and apparently someone complained to management that I was "offensive" and was told I can't wear any of these hats to work again. I am upset beyond belief that I can't even wear a grey or purple cat hat to work. How ridiculous is that ? I may fight them on this because a few years back they sold eared hats in my store.The_Vamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11400897666200723598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071312984049059488.post-58211204131681342652017-02-09T05:29:51.136-05:002017-02-09T05:29:51.136-05:00TY for the pattern!
