"The Bandbox Hat"
digital collage by Mick Mather

While fiddling around with a pattern for gaiters, a word that crops up in a lot of the Sherlock Holmes stories by the way, one thing led to another. As I began adding some drawn shapes and moving things around, out popped this hat, peculiar to marching bands whose uniforms, as coincidence would have it, often include gaiters.
