(Topic: Crocheting! Specifically for the dimensions of my weighted bear)
Hi Friends!
As mentioned a few posts ago, when I was talking about Pookie’s shoes, I realized that his crocheted hat and shoes – my first attempt at either, for him – had not yet made it into this blog!
 |
| This is the hat, on him. It’s the only hat I own for him that lets his ears out. Other companies make hats that do, but too small for him. |
 |
| Hat, not on his head! I started in the center and worked outward, and really just tested as I went to shape it, rather than following a premade pattern. |
 |
| From within. The ear holes are slightly arced, and slightly forward of the center line. |
 |
| The shoes were also fit as I went! Unfortunately this means that, as the cotton stretched, they’ve become a bit large on him. You can even see (on his right shoe, left in the picture) that I’ve rubberbanded the strap to shorten it so it stays on better. |
 |
| Side view. You can see on the toe that I added a stripe, which had to do with the angles that I was using to fill the center to create the shape. |
Yours,
Sarah
