Pointy Hat

I made this over a few days to be my Halloween costume with my old LotR cloak. We only had 6 trick or treaters though! 



Pattern: Whimsical Witch Hat
Designer: Amanda Steves @ Happy Hearth
Started: 20 Oct 2021
Completed: 31 Oct 2021

For: ME!

Hook: J
Yarn/Thread: 2 strands of Vanna's choice, Olive & Taupe, a little over 1 skein each.
Size: adult in pattern


Notes:

• the pattern calls for one strand and a K hook, but I knew that wouldn't work for me. Obtained gauge with 2 strands and a J (and stands up on its own)
• made a band of a single row of DC and decorated with a wood crochet hook, a stone with a hole, and a little bundle of thyme, lavender, and a rose.

New house update

I've not been around because the new house stuff has been eating my life. We moved into a fixer upper. So tons of little things to do, and a bunch of big things. All of the projects we are doing right now that need outside workers (plumbing, electric, etc) are done, so we can do things at our own pace instead of "I have to get these 5 things done before the plumber appointment!" 

This week the main floor laundry area will be done and that will save me a lot of frustration and energy. Stairs are no longer my friend.  The last thing we need to do is put down the new vinyl floor.

I really need to get back into regular craft time and ....yikes do I have the time to make anything for holiday gifts?
