Crochet Pinkie Pie hat for my sister. Ravelry link.

I do like how this one came out. Unlike the Rainbow Dash hat, I decided not to snip the loops since Pinkie’s hair is fairly loopy anyway. Also I just made the mane all as one strip instead of two since there were no color changes.

Although the base hat pattern calls for worsted weight yarn and an I hook, I used bulky weight yarn since that was the best color match and kept the I hook. I really like how that worked out! The double crochet means it’s much more flexible than a single crochet hat, and the bulky yarn plus relatively small hook means it’s much more airtight than a hat made with worsted weight yarn.

Also, the foam head thing I bought at Sally’s is awesome! It made it so much faster and easier to pin and attach all of the decorations.
