I finished the Dinosaur Hat last night and tried it on Drew this morning. He is not quite the willing hat model that he used to be. He kept trying to yank it off his head. Hope he will keep it on once the cold weather comes! My camera was out of battery so I had to take these with my phone.
I wasn't looking forward to sewing on the spikes in a straight line, but it wasn't too bad. I sewed each spike closed first. Then, starting with the spike closest to the ribbed cuff, I picked a vertical row of stitches and started sewing the spikes on, making sure that I always stitched back down into the same vertical row.
Now I need to decide if I should make the matching mittens. I think Drew might be distracted by the spikes and try to pull them off. Maybe I should just make green mittens with blue cuffs, sans spikes. What do you think?
Kelly I am so impressed! You only had one spike the other night! It looks SO cute on him. I think same color mittens, no spikes.
