Gingerbread Hat

Sometimes ya just gotta get a little silly with your hats. That's why I designed and knit this Gingerbread Hat for the Holiday Mystery Gifts Yahoo group members.

Its just a basic hat to knit - the fun part is finding and applying the decorations to customize your hat! I'm actually not done with mine yet - I have some white and irridecent beads to sew into icicles hanging from the roof and window/door tops.

One of the groups test-knitters suggested that we could adjust the length and make accomodations for a spout and handle and turn it into a tea cozy! Cool idea. The pattern is written in two sizes - child and adult and is available on the group through the end of December. Sure wish I had somewhere to wear mine to...and even the "chill" in the air to feel like wearing a wool hat! Not whining...nope...just commenting.
