FO: Teenyweeny Top Hat

i created this teenyweeny slytheriny top hat for the deathly hallows 2 midnight opening and wore it at a jaunty angle along with my witches robes and wand!

i created the pattern myself, reinforcing the crown with cardboard and the brim with a wire crocheted around the edge so it could keep its curl properly.  it features three kinds of feathers, including ostrich, a yard of black tulle bound with grosgrain to add a touch of "mourning" and a snakey pin my dear husband gave me.  a proper send off to our slytherin hero, severus snape.  

*sigh*

FO: Mini-Witch Hat!


I created this tiny witch hat for my friend, Addreamy to wear at the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows, Pt. 2  I was very pleased that it came out as nice as it did. And yep, I made up the pattern myself but nope, I never bothered to write it down. Still I feel it is...



Gold Star Worthy!
