I have to say one thing - this hat was a lot of fun to make. lol
I got the pattern from Miss Prendolyn the Weird, at Wilcox Wizard Wares.
Chris (hubby and hat model) has been wanting a Jack Skellington (Nightmare Before Christmas) hat since we went to Disneyland in September. I promised I could make him one. *sigh* So! I finally found some patterns that I liked and thought I could actually finish. He picked this pattern out of 4 different hat patterns online. With 1 skein each of white and black "Loops & Threads" brand 'Impeccable' worsted weight yarn, I went to work. I highly recommend this yarn, folks - it is soooo soft! Took me about 4 hours and ta-da... we have a hat! Now all there is to do is find a small Jack Skellington patch to stitch on there and I'll be home free! I know the pics are terrible, but to see the stitches with my camera, I have to take half with flash, half without.
