With Halloween costume sewing and several swaps already sent out, it’s time to concentrate on finishing up my Christmas Stocking partner’s package. So I headed to the sewing room and whipped up a fun little project:
A devil hat! This is the second style I’ve made from the Fun Fleece Animal Hat pattern and I have to say, it’s absolutely adorable. Once again, the hat was easy to put together, but I had a bit of trouble poking out all that fleece to make a nice point for the horns. What I found most surprising is that there’s no stuffing involved with the horns – they are firm and small enough that they stand up well on their own. Taylor has requested one for herself, but I’ll have to purchase more fabric – once again, you can’t make more that one hat with the yardage suggested on the pattern instructions. Before I do, I think I’ll test out the cat design.

You may already know this trick … What I do to poke out corners on sewing projects is to grab a chopstick. Using the rounded handle end works very well for me.
Another cute hat!!!

I did that, but it seems like the fleece was just too bulky (or uncooperative?) to poke out nicely on one of the horns. I had to scrap it and start over.
