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 . . .)

District 12 Inspired Headband






District 12 Inspired Headband

3.75mm
You know, I don’t even know what kinds of yarn I’m using half the time, so I can’t tell you . . .

Primrose Flower:
mc
1: ch 2 (count as first st), 5 dc in mc (6)
2: *hdc, ch 2* 5 times (6 spaces) sl st to last st
3: ch 1, *dc, dc 2, tc 3, ch2, dc, sl st to hdc of previous row* in each space
                Fasten off

Leaves (make 2):
1: ch 10, sl st in 2nd ch from hook, sl st, sl st, sc, hdc, dc, tc, dc, *hdc, sc, sc, sc, hdc* in final ch
2: (on opposite side) dc, tc, hd, sc, sl st
3: (to make the band) sc in next st, ch 66
                Fasten off

Attach the leaves between the petals on opposites side and voila! 

Little Mermaid Costume - Updated

It's finally here. An updated version of my little mermaid costume (with proper math this time). Unfortunately, no adorable baby...
