Pontius is one of the three heroes of Trine 2. He is
the king’s valiant knight - or at least he would like
to be. What he is best known for at the moment
is his healthy appetite and that nice spiky helmet.

Pontius’ helmet is cast on provisionally and knit
in the round. The shape is defined by a neat
i-cord edging. The five spikes are knit separately,
stuffed lightly and sewn on.

The hat fits an adult male head. For a
younger gamer, I recommend substituting a smaller
needle size; Pontius looks and holds its shape
even better with a smaller gauge.

The pattern is available in English and Finnish.
