HOTH- Hot off the hook

 Monty

this hat was shown to you as a work in progress at the end of Aug. I came in to the month of september with lots of thoughts and Monty was one of those thoughts. Because of that I was able to brainstorm that mohawk and get it finished. Which them brought me to the end of workin on him.

He is available in my Etsy shop. You can purchse your own hat of Monty here  The Pattern for this hat is also available in my etsy shop. You can get the pattern here

Because this is a character from something I will be posting a free version of the pattern as well. The base hat would make a great aligator hat too, just swapping out the glasses for eyes. When the free version is made, I will likely make a video tutorial to go along with it. The difference between the free and paid version is ads. You will not have any ads in the paid version. It is already put together nicely in a pdf so you just have to download it and go. Also with the paid version I will update it with newer versions if I correct/ alter something to it. That will not happen with the free version. I do not know when t his will be posted as I want it to have the link for the tutorial which means I need time to make the hat with a video. 

*since we are on the topic of free patterns those are going to start being a thing with videos.* 

WIP Wednesday

 Happy Humpday everyone! 

I was 90% convinced I wasn't going to get this post done today with all the craziness happening today. In short the youngest one woke up with a headache and throwing up. The oldest has 2 eye dr. appointments scheduled today for his eye. Then grabbing scripts for ADHD meds and taking the youngest to get swabbed for strep... sounds crazy but she is acting like she did when it took her out in jan, and everyone just figured it was some random bug going around. But Here I am squeezing this in between the craziness! 

What Is WIP Wednesday? 

Well if you aren't a crafter the term WIP could be confusing. If you are a crafter you probably have an idea. This is simply an easy way for me to dedicate some time to share my Works In Progress (WIP) with you guys. 

Monty Hat

The focus today will be a hat I am working on. I was specifically give a request to come up with a pattern for this hat and immediately started to give it attention. Unfortunately I kind of hit a wall with it and have yet to finish it. So here are some pictures of it so far and what I am up to with it. 

This is actually 3 parts, and teeth. I took the teeth I make for other hats to use on this. And gave the bottom of his mouth texture. 

It actually took me looking around  at different ways to make stars to find a way that would work that I would like to make these glasses. They aren't attachted yet, because I was hyper focusing on the mohawk. Which we can all see I have yet to figure out in a way I like. 

So here is to hoping I figure it out soon and I can show you the final product in a post in a few days.
