Key words being "anyone who can crochet". I never got beyond the "make a looooooong chain" stage, much to my grandmother's dismay. My sister, however, took to it like a duck to water. I do better with words, on the whole. *g*
Mwahaha, that is cool! Do you know where that comes from (as in, is there a pattern)? I somehow see myself crocheting that sooner or later for my sister's brood...
Alas, no pattern. It was just a photo I saw on Facebook. But I bet you could google "Roman centurion knit hat" or even "Marvin the Martian knit hat" and find something.
I think it'd make a fantastic gift for the right person. :)
Oh, great, thanks! *bookmarks* That gives me all kinds of ideas, like a Gondorian helmet or something... but first I have to learn "English needlework speech" and how to crochet after patterns. I should get myself an account on ravelry, I suppose - didn't dare so far, because the needlework interferes so badly with the writing. *g*
I can see our mutual friend Miko will be having orders sent her way. She is a MAGICAL Crocheter... and this would only take her about half a day. Oh Fab. what a lovely hat. Including the horsebrush down the back too! Just gorgeous. (I quite like the bloke? do they come as a pair?) teehee.
You'd better be kidding or else!!! I'd send the Ranger over to sort you... or a Uruk Hai! Heehee... Actually right now I'm so starved I could DO with a Gimli-helmet and beard!!!

I wish I could knit. Or had the desire to, which I don't. But when I see things like this, I think, "Oh, man, if only!!"

The idea itself is still totally brilliant (and more than a bit adorkable) of course:-)

I guess, I could do with one of these as well.

I found it on Ravelry; designer has a listing on etsy. Sizes go from infant to adult. So worth it!
