Glad you like it!  Let me know if you have any questions with the pattern.  It's the first time I've written anything down! 

Or just a chocolate cake or birthday cake hat, if you wish!  I based mine on the easter egg cake from the video game "Portal".  I'm also just a little obsessed with Jonathan Coulton's song from the end of the game. 

Here's the easter egg cake (which is not a lie!).



And the hat:





If you like it, feel free to use the free pattern on my blog!  Just please don't make any money off it, sell it or the pattern, etc.  There's a whole copyright thing if you'd like to read it, but really please just don't be a jerk and we'll be fine.

Acorns... in... hair.  Why has this never been done before?  Genius, I say.

I now dream of making such a thing myself.  Thank you!!

this blew my mind.  i have no other words, cause my mind is blown.

I'm such a sucker for the colors you picked.  Really very nice and a great balance with the sizes and shapes.  Very very pretty!

wow!  now that's just great!!

wow!  very very nice!

Seriously awesome!

A kiwi beanie. *snicker*  Based on a very simple knitted baby hat, a color change at the brim, and brown "seeds" stitched on after the fact.  A word of warning: finding the right color yarn for kiwi "skin" is not trivial.  

Kiwi hat for baby.


This was made for an expectant friend, hours before her baby shower (oops!).  Quirky little fruits atop baby heads cannot be denied.
