Tragic

This morning, I discovered that a very, very, terrible thing happened over break. I washed my hat (ok, my mom washed my hat) and it shrunk. It won't go on my head anymore. I'm not sure what to do, especially because warm hats are out of season. However, it is still cold in Blacksburg, and I anticipate needing a warm hat several times this spring, especially on questionable chaco days. I wear my chacos as often as possible, because it moves back laundry day. I run out of warm socks before anything else.

So far, this is the top candidate for a new hat: http://www.rei.com/product/676661

I think that it would match my hoodie phenomenally. I would miss the braids, but I think I could get by.

If you know of any online retailers who still have warm hats, especially if they have braids, PLEASE let me know. Solving this problem is very important to me right now.
