Unwinding with yarn..........



I have been playing with yarn last few days ..Bonne sent me some fun colors and textures in yarn . It brings out the "cat" in me....and since it is almost Halloween time........the perfect thing to crochet is witchy hats . I have another almost finished . I will probaly take it to work with me and finish on break today :) The harvest brown and  gold I am keeping and the other 2 are gifts for gals I work with :)

  3. HI SUS ..i dont have a pattern.i freeform crochet them.......i can tell ya kinda how i do them. .i ch 4 and then slip stitch together ,, ......then 6 triple crochets in it and join ..this makes the tip... i just go down from there .. i add couple stitches each round ......when it gets to as big as i want .for the brim i make 2 triples in each loop so the brim will ruffle..maybe 3 to 5 rows depending on how i want it to be.then take the trim yard and slip st around and tie off. I really dont have a pattern and i add and subtract if i want the top part to look bent and off balance like a witch hat
