I'm a puppeteer. Or, I was most of my life. I always have fun watching children's shows with puppets. One show I used to watch was The Big Comfy Couch. Loonette the clown had an amazing hat, I have always wanted one. Last night I was in a quirky mood so I sat down and crocheted one.
What you need:
Worsted weight acrylic yarn (purple if you want to be color correct)
Size I (5.5 mm) hook
Scissors
Yarn needle
