Note: Hats are worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.
Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.
The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.
I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at drunkenauntwendy@gmail.com.
BODY
Paint 2/3 of the bottom of cork purple. The head is not a part of this. Let dry.
Once purple is dry, paint top third with yellow mixed with white. After dry, come back in with the purple and give him suspenders.
Once the paint is dry. Insert screw hook in the top of the cork.
Using Sharpie find an unmarked spot on the cork and draw two ovals to act as the eyes.
Using the pink marker, make a large circle for a nose.
Using the black marker make a zig zag for the mustache on each side of the nose.
