Possibly the least functional hat ever crocheted?

Lol. Thanks guys.   Now I want lots more tiny hats.

awe, but so cute. How'd you make the stem thing?

I had left a really long tail when I started, so I made a slip knot as close to the hat as I could, then ch 3, sc in each of the 2nd and 3rd ch. Then I stitched it onto the hat in a couple of places to make it sturdier. I hadn't intended to put the stem on it before I started, so I'm sure there's an easier way. Actually, I think that's how/why it came about. I stopped after the 5th round to make the stem and decided to keep it that size. lol

Where oh where did you get that awesome devil clock from??? I LOVE IT!

Cute hat also, I think in that book "Saturday Night Hat" they actually have a pattern for a tiny beret!

Was that a gauge problem?

A few years ago, a friend of mine and I were making hats to donate to the NICU where my daughter had been as a preemie. We used the same pattern, and somehow my hat would have been tight on a ping pong ball, and hers was big enough to literally fit a preemie into, body and all! We ended up having to make some adjustments, and then our hats were fine.

I like your tiny beret. How does it stay on your head? I love things that are too big or too small, they just make me happy

Thank you.

I stitched a hairclip onto the bottom. When I made it, I started increasing like the crown of any old hat, but I stopped after like, 5 rounds and started decreasing.

Ebay, baby. That clock is my favorite thing in the world. lol  He has a beard pendulum too that's hidden by my giant head.  And yeah, I'm sure it's been done before.

More of an attention span problem. I stopped after the 5th round to make the stem, laid it down, and when I came back and picked it up again, I decided it looked cute, did a few decreasing rounds, and I patted myself on the back for making a hat. It has a hairclip stitched onto the bottom to keep it on. My gauge issues always turn out too big. Same thing when I'm knitting. The first slouchy hat I crocheted was big enough that I could have worn it over a hockey helmet. (I'm still giggling at the image of a ping pong ball in a baby hat.)

If you don't wanna wear it (which i hugely suggest like every one else you should) it can always go on a doll (with a long cigarette holder and red lips) or on a dog
