Hi there, thanks for stopping by! I’m sorry, I do not sell finished hats, I wish I had the time! I usually recommend that you purchase the pattern and find a friend or relative who knits to make one for you. 🙂

Another one for my library. Thank you so much. I am purchasing this one now.
I know it’s a bit of a liberty on my part but I don’t suppose there is any chance of you doing a “SOCCER BALL” is there? I should have thought if it before the FIFA World Cup !!
You have my permission to tell me to sod off if you like. Bahahaha.
Bless you Cassie xxxx

I love the pencil hat and plan on ordering the pattern. Thank you for all your hats they are adorable. I would love to make some in a larger size. Is it easy to increase for a child size 7-10 year old or even an adult size.
Cassie May says
You can add 8 more stitches to the 2T cast on and another inch or so the height of the hat before the decrease and that should fit an older child! I would love to add bigger sizes to my patterns at some point! I need to do some math and some testing! 🙂
