This pattern is for the beard only. The pattern for the Viking Helmet pictured (by Tara Murray) can be found here.

September 2014: Error in Row 2 to be corrected soon in pattern (I’m in between computers at the moment so I can’t directly upload a new version)…

R2: CH 1, turn, HDC in same, (CH 2, skip 2 stitches, HDC 2) 3 times, HDC 12, SL ST 16, HDC 14, (CH 2, skip 2 stitches, HDC 2) 2 times, CH 2, skip 2 stitches, HDC

I also plan to share a video to help with attaching the large beard strands to the base soon!

December 2013 update: The pattern has been updated with a new gauge, reduced number of stitches, and a third button hole.

You have permission to sell finished items made from this pattern, but not to use my photos. Thank you.
