Perhaps this hat will be part of a costume, a prop with which to try on being a witch for a day. Perhaps this hat will be a statement piece, an announcement to the world of a path chosen for the whole year ‘round, even if one only dresses the part once a year.

Whether we are a witch for a day, or all year, this hat offers us all the opportunity to stand tall and proud in our full potential for magic.

A Note In Regards To Working In The Round:
Thicc Witch Hat requires a wide range of circumferences. This means it is helpful to either have lots of different length needles, use the magic loop method of going in the round, or use double pointed needles. The pattern assumes the maker will use their favorite method, changing needles styles when and if needed.
