My auntie took up spinning wool last year. She sent me this hat she knitted me from yarn she spun herself. It's wonderfully soft and chunky.
I'd told her to make it extra big so I could roll it down in wicked windy weather.
I've been looking at Sicilian embroidery for sewing ideas.
Here's part of the royal robe made c. 1134, probably by Arab artisans, in the Palermo workshops of Roger II, a Norman king of Sicily.

Now you need to cut eye holes in the hat and embroider around them.
