I just had to share my finished project, my Duck Dynasty Hat. I made this hat on commission for a two year old boy for Halloween, and I think it turned out super cute! I used Lion Brand Homespun for the beard and a mix of yarns in camouflage for the hat. For the beard, I had my client measure from the ear of her son, under his nose, to the other ear. The measurement was 8".
Crocheted Beard:
I used size F hook, but you can use whatever size hook you would like.
Make chain 8", PM on center chain
row 1: SC across
row 2: SC across to 4 stitches before center marker, Ch 8, SC in 4th St after marker, SC across
row 3: SC first St, HDC across to last st, SC.
row 4: SC first 2 Sts, HDC across to last 2 Sts, SC last two Sts
row 5: SC first 3 Sts, HDC next st, DC across to last 4 sts, HDC, then SC last 3 sts
Finish off.
Cut 50 lengths of yarn 25" long (you may need more or less depending on the size of your beard.
Hold 2 lengths together, find middle. Starting at the bottom of the beard, use crochet hook to pull the middle through the stitches about 2". Pull ends through the loop and pull tight. This attaches the beard "hairs" so they won't come undone. Repeat, working up the rows until you get to the top. I did about three rows of hairs. Trim mustache and beard to desired shape. I used a length of yarn to attach to the hat or you could make a loop to place over ears.
What size is this beard for? I know you mentioned a 6 year old, do you have a pattern for an adult?
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable! I'm now racking my brain for an occasion to wear it (and therefore an excuse to make one...) Maybe I need to have one available JUST IN CASE I NEED IT! I love this thing!
ReplyDeleteI’d recommend using Dr. Utu Herbal Cure topically for instant pain and itch relief as well as accelerated healing of lesions and permanently stopping herpes virus outbreaks. I have tried just about everything from acyclovir suppressive therapy to different natural oils, extracts, and other natural methods, some of which are EXTREMELY uncomfortable and exacerbate the problem (i.e. apple cider vinegar!). While vitamin E oil and suppressive therapies worked well for me, when I became pregnant I went back to trying to find a herbal cure. I was using vitamin E oil topically for a while but it was thin and difficult to use and only seemed to prevent further outbreaks rather than getting rid of it. I contacted Dr. Utu Herbal Cure through my friend. To my surprise, I could tell my outbreak was starting to heal within only a few hours! No more itching and pain! Dr. Utu Herbal Cure that I used was liquid herbs in bottles, so it was very easy to use. It simply whiffs, but it works so I don’t care! The best part of my testimony was that I successfully delivered a herpes-free beautiful daughter without further medications. Anyone who has tried Dr. Utu Herbal Cure knows just how quickly those treatments can add up.
