Homemade crocheted hats & more Hello! I'm Dana of dana dooley designs (d3), which specializes in homemade, practical crocheted and crafted wares.

I design all items from scratch without patterns, and everything is hand-crocheted and sewn with love in every stitch.

I am a student teacher in Sacramento, CA with aspirations of becoming a high school social science teacher. In July 2011, I married my love of 6 years in a very personal outdoor ceremony where we hammered shut a time capsule. We have two babycats named Ganon and Koopa, both rescues. Crocheting is how I deal with stress and express creativity in a non-academic setting. My grandma taught me how to crochet when I was 6 years old, and I've been creating ever since!

I aim to make fun and functional things -- hats of all shapes, sizes, colors, and characters; lined purses; colorful buckled laptop sleeves; gorgeous textured scarves; and multipurposed flower pins.

**********ALL KITTY HAT SALES DONATED TO SACRAMENTO-AREA CAT RESCUE GROUP, CATS ABOUT TOWN SOCIETY. (www.catsabouttown.org)**********
They are an entirely volunteer-run, no-kill organization, and I volunteer with them on weekends.

General information

All d3 items are original designs and created by me. :D

I strive to be eco-friendly. Currently I am developing a line of items made from recycled plastic bags and other upcycled goods. Furthermore, I don't use purchased fluff or polyfill-- instead I save all my yarn clippings from other projects and recycle them as stuffing.

I love to tackle awesomely obscure custom orders -- recent examples include hats of Futurama's Bender and Zoidberg, various animal hats (owl, eagle, dog, squirrel, monkey, panda, etc.), internet-meme-embroidered bags and laptop sleeves, and a purse embroidered with the recipient's personal logo. Please do contact me if interested in custom work!
