    WTS Hand-knitted Mandragora Hat

    Since November last year, I've been knitting hats as a hobby. I sell quite a few of them. A good friend suggested I have a go at knitting a Mandragora hat. Since I'm not going to wear it myself, I hope it will go to a happy home.

    Circumference = 18 inches (unstretched), Height = 7.8 inches
    Asking price: £16.00 (exc. p&p).
    PayPal only, please.

    Alternatively, you can commission other hats from here: http://facebook.com/stitchhappynyan. Please bear in mind, however, that my commission slots are full for the timebeing.

    Hi Maakoto,

    Just realised I didn't put measurements with the picture, so please check if it will fit you by measuring your own head. Knitted hats can stretch a fair bit (especially over time), so don't worry if it seems to be a few inches too small.

    I think it will still fit - the yarn I use, coupled with the stockinette stitch makes it pretty stretchy. I put it on my own head and it's really loose!

    It's doable, although I have no idea how to knit wings. I could embroider them on the hat, but of course they would be less noticeable unless the hat were to be viewed from the side.

    That's a really good idea! I'll have a go and experiment with it.

    Edit: Here's a picture of me wearing the hat. It's made to fit a head that's larger than mine, so it's perfectly capable of stretching to fit:
