Herro Kittyyy

So my first attempt was a failure in my eyes because it wasn't up to my ridiculously high standards for myself:

It was also much bigger than I anticipated.
***
So I tried again making my own pattern. It was more of a success:"

Before the face

After the face (Felt. I'll touch it up when it's dry.)


SO HERE'S THE PATTERN FOR THE HEAD OF HELLO KITTY. 
Head:
Ch2, make 4 st in the second chain from the loop. (4)
Row1: 2 sc in each st around (8)
Row2: sc in first st, dc in the second. Continue around. (12)
Row3: sc in first 2 sts, dc in the third. Continue around. (16)
Row4: sc in first 3 sts, dc in the fourth. Continue around. (20)
Row5: sc in each st around. (20)
Row6: Sc in first 3 sts, dec in the fourth. Continue around (16)
Row7: Sc in first 2 sts, dec in the third. Continue around (12)
Row8: sc in the first st, dec in the second. Continue around. (8)
Row9: dec in every other st. Tie off.
Add the face and the bow.

Bow:
For the bow, all I did was ch 10 and tied the ends together. Then I took that circle that was made and tied yarn around the middle to make it look like a bow and sewed it on.

This is my first attempt at trying this, but with a little help from the wonderful patterns of nerdigurumi.com (this is your shout-out!) I have made a DOMO!

FEAR MY SKILLZ.

***

And now, introducing the Mini Domo! He's a keychain! :)

Companion Cube!!!:

Pattern from Nerdigurumi. Awesomeness from me of course :D

***

Pokeball, Go! This took me half an hour. So fast!

***

1up!

Pattern from AmiAmour.com <3

In making Pokeballs for my man to walk around A-kon with,:

I decided to see how small I could make them.:

 My first attempt at the mini ones, I used paper(for lack of supplies where I was) for the middle, then I wised up and started peeling apart my 4-ply yarn to make the centers.

Domomania!

Nick asked me to make him a domo hat, I finished it this morning :)

Bum ba da bum!

To Make, Or Not To Make.

These are some awesome hats that I've come across in my time on the internet:
***
This hat has been posted to me several times since I've found it. A friend in the Netherlands wants me to make it for him. xD:

 This is such an adorable little lion hat :) When I have kids...

  India posted this on my wall one day. It's so cute. When I have kids... Lol

 Again. When I have kids..... Lololol. They're gonna be so nerdy in their first years of life:

I found this last night! I wanna make it for myself! :)

 I saw this last night too, and it's just so adorable. I sent a picture to Christina and I'm gonna make one for Benjie! I just want to make it. Benjie happens to be the taker. Lol:

The Not-So-Normal People Hats

I love my owl hat.

I finished it the day before it snowed:

And several people requested one of their own, in several colours:

***
Upon seeing the owl hats, Nick asked me to make him a koala hat:

I still regard this as one of my favourites I've ever made.

His Grandma likes it too XD
***
The most popular hat I've ever made:

Pikaaaaa~

 Happy Customer!

***
R2D2 for my dad:

Meinem Vater:

That hat was such a pain.
***
The most ridiculously difficult hat I ever made besides R2 was this:

Companion Cube.
***
The Pandas!

 Raine's ^^^

 Lorianne's^^^

Lorianne^^^
***
Aaaand, the pokeball hat!

(I made a majority of this at work. You can tell by the poster behind me. bahahah)

Normal People Hats

Gina wanted me to make her a slouchy hat:

This is the pattern I found.

Happy Customer! :3
***
Justin's Bling hat(That he has yet to pick up):

I felt that pose was only appropriate for the hat's design.
***
One day, Christina handed me a hat while I was at her house and she said "Make me one of these in another colour!"

This was allllllll free hand. The 'hat' portion was knitted, the bill was crocheted.
***
:P

And then after I remembered he wanted a trim:

But he wouldn't let me take a picture of him in it!

***
Jacy asked me for this, and I laughed. So Incredibly hard. The entire time I was making it.

I'm still laughing in the picture.

The happy MILF :)

Happy Hooker!

This hat was crocheted because at the time, it was just easier and more versatile for me than knitting. Now I can do just about anything with two instead of one ;)

I was quite proud of this newsboy hat. Joe wears them a lot, so making one for Benjie just obviously had to be done.

Cutie Patootie. <3

The Hats for the Childrens

When Jacy first had her son, we all knew he would end up just like her: The Devil. So I offered to make Mason a hat:

That little devil was absolutely adorable:

And when Kayla's stepmom got pregnant, she had seen this hat and requested them for the whole family:

(I'm wearing Kayla's).
***
After the little devil hat, Jacy asked me to make Mason and Angry Birds Piggy hat:

Such a cutieeee.
***
India also had me make a hat for her daughter:

I used to have an absolutely adorable picture of her wearing it, but I cannot find it for some reason. :/
***
For my mother's best friend who just had a granddaughter:

***
DA DUM... DA DUM... DA DUM. DA DUM DA DUM DA DUM DA DUM:

Bre's son's shark hat :)
***
And last but not least:

Braxton's sock monkey hat!
