My Daddy's birthday is coming up. He'll be the big 64. Old man. ;) I've been thinking of different things I can make him. My go-to item is a hat. They're quick, they're pretty simple. But what kind of hat? The first thing that popped into my head was the Pillsbury Doughboy. I wish I could give you a really good explanation for that, but I really can't. I know he has at least one Doughboy shirt that we've given him, but why... I don't remember. I couldn't find a pattern for a crocheted Doughboy hat or chef's hat, so I kept thinking. I thought of just a basic earflap beanie, but that seems so boring. Why does it have to be a novelty hat? I don't know. I guess that's my
thing.
I texted my sister and asked her for a suggestion. Her suggestion? Pillsbury Doughboy.
So... what to do?
Come up with my own pattern. Heaven help me.
I doubt even a professional crocheter would have a clue what this means
I was confusing myself, so I made myself a little chart. I really can't tell you if it will work yet or not. Hopefully, finger's (and eyes) crossed, it will look vaguely like this little poppin' fresh dude's hat. Key word: vaguely. If I can figure it out, maybe I can make a mini one and then figure out how to make an amigurumi Doughboy. THAT would be awesome.
