Dead fish WHAT????
Posted by: TammyHATS! Dead fish HATS!
Yep, I knitted dead fish hats for my three sons and one of my nephews for Christmas. I’m not the fastest knitter in the world by any means but they worked up pretty quickly and this is a great yarn stash project that uses up any amount of leftover colors so other than having to buy a set of double-point #7 needles (used a 40% off coupon at Joann’s to get them cheaper ) these fish didn’t pull anything else out of my pocketbook!
Here is the complete site to Dead Fish Hats. The link to the pattern is in the top paragraph and is found at Knitty, a fantastic website for knitters!
Here is a great picture of my guys with their dead fish hats:
Now that website also provides you with some great ideas for colors and designs plus you can see pictures of “live-fish-hats”.
My dad, the fisherman, has put in a request for his own dead-fish-hat and I have to admit that I could totally see myself ice fishing with my dead fish hat on, so I think I’ll be making one for myself.
