Razor's Hat from World Enough and Time
I was recently asked to make Razor's Hat from the Doctor Who episode World Enough and Time. I wrote up a pattern just in case anyone else was interested in making one for themself!What you'll need:
US size 6 needles (4.0 mm)
Double knit yarn
I used Stylecraft Special DK in Dark Brown Shade 1004I found that if you want to make your hat distressed in a similar way to the show, it is easier to prevent unraveling if you create the distressing as you go. I've included two versions of the hat, one with distressing and one without.
Unfamiliar terms explained:
DSPU: drop stitch and pull out stitches all the way to the brim, pick up a stitch on your left needle, ready to be worked as the next stitchCO 112 stitches in the round
