Mohawk Hat

Mohawk hat

I just finished this custom order for a knitted mohawk hat.

I started with i-cord and knit from the bottom up, shaping the first ear flap, then the other. I cast on the in between stitches so the hat could be worked in the round.

I added a 3×3 ribbed brim then finished the hat in stockinette, decreasing to make the crown.

For the mohawk, I added wool yarn on in three rows then felted it. I let it dry over night and this was the result.

The i-cord is also tipped with orange felt, which looks pretty cool. Let me know what you think!
