Isn’t this a cute idea: to issue children with few hair a hat that looks like a wig ;-)
I find this better than bunny or teddy bear ears!

Crochet Hat Patterns
Well, I don’t wear hats, but because it’s the season for hats I thought that’s it’s suitable anyhow to present the patterns for crochet hats ;-)
Fleece Hat
I find that this hat looks absolutely professional and when I look at the tutorial on how to make it it seems that it is quite easy to be made.
I’m very impressed!
But I don’t wear hats, on principle ;-)

Luxurious Fascinator
It would have never occurred to me to make such fascinators by myself, but then: Why not? ;-))
My hair is very soft and thin, therefore my fascinator should be at the most half as luxurious, but I think I will see what I can do there :)
Actinia
Once I saw the Worm Scarf and having read the instruction for the ‘worms’ I thought that you can knit great fringes this way.
I begun with wristwarmers and after having finished them they looked like the sea anemones called Actinia.
Then I was hooked and knitted an Actinia headband, an Actinia ring and an Actinia brooch (see pictures below).
It is soooo much fun ;-)
And for all this items I wrote a tutorial. You can find the link below at the links.
This is the headband.
It is just possible that there are slightly too much fringes!?
;-)
My Actinia ring – cute, isn’t it?
That is the brooch. It looks great on my black overcoat.
The Actinia wristwarmers and ring can easily be worn over woollen gloves if it’s really cold.
I haven’t done the Actinia anklewarmer yet, I made the picture with my not yet sewn wristwarmer.
Looks great, doesn’t it?

There you find instructions on how to
knit items with fringes,
add knitted fringes to finished items,
knit the wristwarmers,
knit the headband,
knit the ring,
knit the brooch and
knit an I-cord.
I also added ideas for more ways to befringe items.
Calorimetry Headband
I really wanted to have a hat, but with my ponytail I don’t like them.
The Calorimetry Headband was the solution and I knitted it in a very short time.
You can see it on the photo ‘in action’.
(To take a photo of myself is not as simple as I thought ;-)))
I find the Calorimetry Headband brilliant.
First: a hat is for people with long hair often difficult to wear and the headband put all those problems away.
Second: I like the short rows pattern.
And third: because it can be done in a really short time it is a very good gift for the (ok, last but one) minute.
And it can even be knitted by impatient people ;-))
I had to adapt the size and the number of stitches, because I used totally different yarn, but I’m really pleased with it ;-)
