Merch suggestion [Hats & Scarves] http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/site-and-message-board-feedback-and-suggestions/threads/45333 Gazzamm So I was walking to my bus stop last night after a hard mini write-in with one of my fellow yorkshire writers when it occurred to me how freezing cold it was... Which then lead my train of thought back to NaNo! We should have available in the store woolly hats and scarves with the NaNoWriMo crest logo on them. Not everyone taking part in NaNoWriMo is in a warm climate in November and I'm sure, if they were reasonably priced, a number of UK based WriMo's would wear the hat or scarf with pride.

Some cafes I visit in November are outdoors and it can be rather chilly for typing.

So while I'd love to see NaNo hats available I don't think it is necessary to make them specifically for cold climate Wrimos. How about iron-on patches so that we can show our NaNo pride on items that are not currently available through the store? One could be put on a backpack, or a jacket without the need to come up with a whole new product and gamble on inventory that may or may not sell. Just an idea.

For most of the year it could be the page to a month style, but November could be day by day, each day filled with information, hints, tips - the same kinda thing that's in the NaNo Novel Writing Kit/No Plot, No Problem :) I'm thinking more of a wall calendar, but I'm sure other designs could be just as do-able.
