This gift goes with page 186 of my book, This Is for You, and the story there begins like this…
“About a decade ago, I received a huge gift from a new friend—a giant redwood tree! It was not to keep, of course. My new friend Jason on the Lost Coast deep in Northern California invited me eighty feet up into an extraordinary redwood canopy where we got to spend the night in sleeping bags on a handwoven net platform…”
80-feet up in a giant redwood the next morning, we awoke to a covey of Black-Capped chickadees serenading us, checking us out! So I turned my friend Jason into a chickadee by knitting him this hat a few months later, a thank you of sorts, but also, just plain ‘ol fun!
