Thankyou for publishing your pattern for the witches hat. I think that there is a row that is wrong. Row 8 should be repeat row 4 not row 1. I found that when i did row 1 i ended up with 37 not 33.
I would like to make this in an adult version. What adjustments should I make?
Standard adult size is 22″. What I would do is go 4 more rows after round 18 doing this: row 19 ch 3, DC in first st, [dc in each of the next 10 st, 2 dc in the next st] 8 times, dc in the next 11 st, join with sl st. (97 st) Follow round 20 with the next increase in nbr 11, 9 times (105 st) and so forth. Measure as you go along until you get to 22″ then start your brim with the total stitches you ended up with.
Is there an adult pattern 😊
I would think you can add more rows to make it fit and adult cause that’s what I’m gonna do
This is lovely! Is there a pattern for bigger kids and adults?
A great pattern, would be easy to make it in red for Christmas, I made my granddaughter one a couple of years ago in red and white she loves it and is still wearing it, I guess any color would work
Yes, I’d be interested in an adult version too
