I knit this hat for my sister from this yarn. I knit another one with thick & quick for myself. It’s a really a cute & fast pattern. I might have made the pom too big though. I’m a sucker for a giant pom.
A captivating gang of 24 huggable, lovable creatures to sew—from classics like Margot, a topsy-turvy doll, and the button-jointed teddy bear Bjorn Bjornson, to irresistible Evelyn, a wool felt inchworm decked out in mod glasses and a kerchief, and Koji, a fiercely cute spiked softie monster. There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.
can one make a pompom too big?
Ah, so cute! Love the huge pompom 😉
I have made this pattern numerous times. Pom Pom tip: tie the pom pom off with log tails and then only tie it on the the hat, this way when you need to wash the hat you can untie the pom pom. Save its shape and the hat keeps its shape better.
Maggie loves this hat and has claimed it as her own, so I’m going to need another one…
