Do you happen to need a Shrek Hat? Well, I’ve got a pattern for you! I was contacted by the costume designer for the school play at my son’s school, asking if I could knock out a pattern for Shrek hats for “Shrek The Musical”, which is happening at school next month.

So here’s my pattern, which is dead-simple. It’s written for bulky-weight yarn, is plain stockinette except for a smidge of ribbing to stabilize the brim, and the ears are I-cord.
