Attempting to modify to fit a Blythe doll. Starting with mods form @fiber figments on Instagram

Fingering weight yarn
2.0mm hook
Not sure if she followed Child or adult size instructions, so I’m using adult. In any case if it doesn’t work out I can still use as decor and I will have a better idea where to modify from here.

I made the adult size and it fits my Blythe doll head perfectly. I sized down to 1.75mm hook for brim but next time I will stick with the 2.0mm. The brim wasn’t wide enough to accommodate the final round of ruffles so I eliminated that round rather than frog the brim and start over.

I made spots with a 2mm hook and fingering weight yarn in 3 sizes as follows:
Small, 8sc in MC
Medium, 8 sc in MC; 2sc in each st (16)
Large, 8sc in MC; 2sc in each stitch; sc, 2sc around (24)

I made 3 Large, 6 Medium and 10 Small spots. I arranged them and pinned on hat and then sewed them on.

Next I will attempt making mushrooms. I tried to make the ones in pattern with a 1.5mm hook and lace yarn but I it was just too hard for me to see. I will try making some with a 2mm hook and fingering weight yarn.

I decided not to add mushrooms as the colors were more of a Halloween theme. I just need to get photos of the hat on a doll with the Halloween dress I purchased.
