Fleece hats

Retriever II · 02-26-2018, 01:23 AM

I guess this a fun art-thing to share.

A year ago at MAGFest I bought myself a fleece Bulbasaur hat. I really liked wearing it, and bought a few more this year. But the vendor I liked was going out of business, so I decided to try making a few of my own. Here's how they've turned out.

Monster Kid from Undertale

(I cosplayed Monster Kid this year -- now I can carry it forward in hat form)

Dratini

(Made this to wear during a Pokemon Go community day)

Sailor Moon

(Made for a friend)

There's still a few more I want to make. Wanting a Scyther hat was my original motivation, but I'll need to design a new crown pattern for it.

I really dig the Dratini hat. Can I have it?

Truly an American Classic

I'd die for sailor moon... plus the sailor moon hat you made.

Awesome work!!

That is a thoroughly cute Dratini.

Course clear! You got a card.

This looks like a super fun art project, I reckon my wife would appreciate these. I'll have to show her.

These are very fun!

When I get my website up I'll probably post some more information on the topic.

These do look fantastic, please let us know when you have more information such as whether or not you are accepting commissions!

It's Minun! My friend's favorite pokemon. Feel slightly guilty that I don't have a matching Plusle to go with it.

Retriever II · 03-07-2018, 02:17 AM

Literally everyone that I showed Minun to that knew what it was, asked if there was a Plusle too. So together at last, I guess.

I took pictures as I went, so I will see about turning it into a guide.

**VinnyVideo** · 03-07-2018, 10:41 AM

A Minun without a Plusle would be very wrong indeed.

Course clear! You got a card.

I think plusle would work better as a plushle, but whatever.
yeah i did make this post just to make that pun

These are really cool.

Made another one for last weekend's PoGo community day. Definitely the most complex one I've put together.

(ohey I traded out the paper towel holder for a crude copy of my own head)

I've got the patterns and more information on that particular one up on my blog: https://texelsaurus.com/craft/mareep-hat/

@Pedigree I would consider commissions on a case-by-case basis. If you have something in mind, send me a message on discord.

Made a couple more this weekend.

June's Pokemon Go Community Day is Larvitar. So Larvitar hat it is.
I skipped the ear-flap pattern to make it a bit more bearable for summer wearing, and it probably sped up construction time 2x.
OTOH it's also the most complicated flock work I've done for the eyes.

Made on commission.

Been a while since I made one of these, but this is the one I wanted to make from the very beginning. And now that my full suit cosplay is done, it seemed like a good time.

Scyther! Wanted to stick some teeth in there but totally forgot.

Thunderbro · 11-21-2018, 12:30 AM

Oh wow, these hats are really nice!

Retriever II · 11-26-2018, 03:24 AM

It's not just zombies that want to munch on your brains.

Generic animal this time, a cute shark. A bit challenging to attach the tail, which covers both parts of the hat.

By the way, I do put my digital patterns up: https://github.com/jaquadro/CraftResourc...terns/Hats
