Potter time
I just added the ribbon to the felted Cornelius Fudge Lime Green Bowler, and it looks great! It doesn't precisely fit Chris, but he said he'd still like to wear it to the movie next weekend. Granted, Fudge wears a black hat in the movies, but Potter readers will know what the dealio is.Pattern: Felt Hat by Fiber Trends. This pattern is sized for a woman or a teen. I had to knit both a swatch and a prototype to make the hat to fit Chris' man-sized head. It's all about ratios. I'm glad I make the prototype first, as I forgot that ratios should apply to the number of rows as well as the number of stitches per round.
Yarn: Good old Cascade 220. Hasn't let me down yet. Color 8903. It's a pretty lime green.Needles: Size 9 Addi circulars, then size 9 crappy ass plastic dpns that I hope I never have to use again.
