Knit this colorful hat – based on BB8 from Star Wars: The Force Awakens – to let everyone know that you love all Star Wars fans, regardless of how many movies they’ve seen or books they’ve read. If you loved BB-8 as much as I did, you’ll love this hat.

If you post on instagram be sure to use the tag #TheForceofBB8Awakens. If you’d like to, you can mention me Camryn.Daytona, or use the tags #CraftingOnPinsAndNeedles or #CamrynDaytona and I’ll be sure to like and comment on it! Post on here as well, because I“d love to see all your hard work.

Yarns:

• You’ll need one skein of white yarn, plus grey, orange, and black.

Needles

• I recommend round needles and DPNs in whatever size you choose to obtain gauge.

Other Materials

• Tapestry Needle

• Stitch markers: I recommend 11 with one of a different color or style.

Updates

• As of December 21, 2015 I’ve added a chart of the stripes as well as the written instructions.
