Hello Kitty Hat

HELLO KITTY HAT

About two years ago I crocheted a Hello Kitty hat for my daughter. She has loved this hat.  She even wears it in the summer sometimes just because she wants to wear it.  I have been watching as she has slowly been outgrowing it.  Now it only covers the top of her ears.  She asked me if I could fix it.  I was not sure if I could.  So I thought, "Well, worst case scenario I could take it apart and re-crochet it larger.”  So I put the hat back on her head so I could see more precisely, how well it still fit.  Due to the nature of things that are crocheted, it stretched out and still held its shape.  So I decided, first, I would see if I could just add a few rows of length. Ten minutes later I had added two rows of double crochet to the bottom of the hat.  Now the hat is again long enough to cover her ears.  I also have a daughter happily wearing her winter hat inside again.

Total cost:

0.00     I used scraps yarn left over from another project.
