I originally bought this pattern because my hubby saw a picture and said “make me one!” Lol Apparently he didn’t realize it was a slouchy hat, because part way through he asked why it was so big lol So now it’s mine :-D

On the technical side - I didn’t have DK yarn, and my closest access to yarn (aka Walmart lol) is an hour away, AND my car is out of commission! lol So I had to make due with WW…and it worked out pretty well! The skulls are 2” square, instead of the 1¾ you get with pattern gauge, but that’s ok by me! I probably could have compensated a little by going down to a 4 or 4.5mm, but the next size down from 5mm that I have is 2.5mm steel hook (broken/lost hooks, and back to the Walmart/no car reason lol)

And on the fun side - I used this hat in my FB profile picture and won a free pattern from Spider Mambo!! :-D So I got the Creepy Skulls fingerless gloves to go with the hat :-D EXCITED!
