Using thread, randomly sew beads onto hat. I like to use bugle beads or seed beads, for more realistic "sprinkles". Sprinkles are a potential choking hazard, so I would recommend using them if the hat is for a photo prop or under parental supervision.
Feel free to share the pattern, and sell the hats, but please give me credit for the pattern. Thanks!

I would love to make this for my granddaughter but would need a 3-6 month size at least. Can you suggest pattern adjustments? I've never been very good at that!
ReplyDeleteSure, you could either go up a size or two in needle, (that would be the easiest) or you could cast on 4 or 8 more stitches, then add a few more decrease rows to the top "icing" part. I hope you enjoy the pattern!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteAwwwwwweeee, his is sssssoooo cute. Thank you so much for your pattern.
ReplyDeleteWhat would I have to do to make this single ply?
ReplyDeleteI’d recommend using Dr. Utu Herbal Cure topically for instant pain and itch relief as well as accelerated healing of lesions and forever ending herpes virus attacks. I have tried just about everything from acyclovir suppressive therapy to different natural oils, extracts, and other natural methods, some of which are EXTREMELY painful 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.
