The Knit Guru

So, Pokemon Go is having a Halloweeen event…. with new Avatar costumes. I saw this cap in the costume shop… and yes, I realised you already had everything you needed to create this hat. This is a bonus knitting pattern this week, because, well, no parts of this hat are new.

You will need:

• 4mm knitting needles and DK purple yarn.
• White DK yarn and a pom-pom maker
• Yellow and Black DK yarn (in small amounts)
• 2 black buttons
• Yellow felt and cotton to stitch it on

The hat itself.

As long as it is made in Purple yarn, you can make any plain hat. I used this basic hat pattern from the Migo hat as a base.

The tassels

These are just upside down hearts. We have a pattern for them here. You need to make 2 in yellow yarn.

Braid black yarn in 6 inch lengths. Stitch a heart on the end and stitch them to the sides of the hat.

Create a white pom-pom for the top of the hat. Cut out a cross from yellow felt and stitch it on the front of the hat. Sew 2 black buttons as eyes on the same level as the cross.

And you are done. A bonus hat pattern as there are no new hat elements. Tomorrow you will get another pattern, but one that is new.
