Notes

5th November: Such a FABULOUS pattern, so well thought out, clear and easy to follow with EVERY step shown so well. This little dude was so much fun to make up that I, ahem, maybe have gotten carried away and thus, lunch will be late. It didn’t really take that long either, but you know how it goes, just this bit to do, then this bit and then I couldn’t leave him without a hat, could I?! LOL (I did have some interruptions too, I was also helping make a balsa wood model jeep and then locomotive :-) )
More to come, but I have to go and make lunch first because everyone is hungry!!! LOL
Eta Lunch made, and ironing done, so I decided to make a fluffy snowy hat!
Third hat, as per Hat 2 in pattern.
Fourth hat, just an idea which I think worked out quite well :-) Worked as for the first hat pattern.

Test was for one dude and three hats, completed on the 5th and survey completed in test thread.

Two further dudes finished 7th November, awaiting sun for photos, or at least a break in the rain as it seems to be a universal thing (from testing thread!) that these Dudes don’t like rain!!!
