Hunger Games Katniss Everdeen Inspired Girl On Fire Beanie


Hunger Games Katniss Everdeen inspired Girl On Fire Beanie



(also, I apologize in advance for the horrific pictures of me; it was a stay-in-bed-until-noon kind of day) 



REVISED *JULY 2013*


Inspired by Cinna’s many designs (I hope he’d be impressed)


6.00 and 5.50 hooks
Sensations Angel Hair yarn (I think the colour is called Berry?)
                This is more of a colour/yarn-specific pattern, so I highly recommend using the exact yarn

Using 6.00mm hook
Magic circle
1: ch 3, dc 11 in circle (12)
2: 2 dc in each st around (24)
3: *dc in next st, 2 dc in next st* around
4: *dc in next 2 sts, 2 dc in next st* around
5: *dc in next 4 sts, 2 dc in next st* around (you’ll find that there won’t be enough stitches for the last few sts, so dc in next 2 sts, then 2 dc in next st)
6 -10: dc around
Switch to 5.50mm hook
11-14: *fphdc in next st, bphdc in next st* around
                To fasten off, skip a st and then slst

And there you have it!



(Not gonna lie, I’m really tempted to use it for part of a Katniss/Peeta Victory Tour cosplay and take pictures, except for the obvious fact that I’d need a Peeta . . .)

    1. You're welcome. :P The Hunger Games is one of my favourite books so a lot of times, instead of pulling something from thin air I take inspiration from the story (and the movie because the stylistic choices were absolutely brilliant). Haha, thanks but I think it would be more acceptable if I didn't have several of those stay-in-bed days in a row. I'm taking advantage of the opportunity while it lasts. :D

  2. Thanks for the pattern! I added a pompom on top to make it into more of a wintery hat; it turned out very cute! :)
