The finished hat...
...shown here...
...in daylight...
...in order to properly parade...
...its rather shocking colors! :)
The sturdier wool that I used for the horns...
...provided a firmness and structural support...
...that superfine merino would not have...
...and I think you have to look pretty hard...
...to see the color variation.
To get a good fit...
...I hand-stitched the hem after trying it on for size.
So that you could see it in situ...
...I enlisted my eldest daughter as a model...
...and afterwards, she decided that she rather enjoyed wearing it...
...and would like to keep it. :)
It suits her, don't you think?

The hat! The hat! It’s terrific and looks lovely on your daughter. Now you will need to make a second hat for yourself! Nicely done.
What a lovely beaming smile she has - and yes, the whole look is very fetching!
Sunny- Thank you!!
Rachel- I think it surprised her, how good she looked in this rather strange hat! :)
Oh so cool!
