Little yarn hat
Charming decorative little hats that resemble touching children's things are very useful for the winter holidays, and can be used for interior decoration, a small gift or even a Christmas tree decoration. The process of making such a cap can be mastered quite quickly, and can even be used for labor lessons.
For work we will prepare: a round plastic bottle, bright yarn, scissors, decorative elements (rhinestones, beads, buttons, etc.).
We cut the plastic bottle in a circle, we get a closed ring. The width of the plastic strip is 1 cm. If the bottle is of large diameter (1.5 - 2 liter capacity), then the ring needs to be cut into two identical semicircles, which are connected into a ring and the ends are secured with tape to obtain a circle of smaller diameter.
We select bright yarn from skeins of thread that you have left over from previous projects, which were lying idle, and might not be needed at all. Yarn can be used in different thicknesses and textures: thin, thick, boucle, sectionally dyed, you can use threads after unraveling things, even if they are not whole.
We cut the thread into equal fragments, each piece should be 15 - 20 cm.Then fold it in half, thread a loop through the plastic ring and tighten the thread.
If the threads are thin, then we use not one thread, but a whole strand. In the same way, we collect threads around the entire circumference of the ring, placing them tightly to each other.
We get a ring with attached threads. Then we collect the threads into a bundle and push it inside the ring, straightening the ends. The bottom part of the hat is ready.
We form a pompom. To do this, we tie the ends of the threads with additional thread, pull them tightly and cut off the ends. We cut off the threads that come out of the pompom, getting a round fluff on the top of the hat.
If the length of the yarn fragments turns out to be shorter than 20 cm, then the hat will turn out to be single-layer; for the pompom, you do not need to tuck the threads inside the ring, just tie the threads in a knot. We use threads of different colors to make the hat more elegant.
The hats began to be decorated. We use small rhinestones, buttons, and beads that you can find in your craft chest.
All that remains is to tie a thread, with which you can hang the miniature hat on a spruce branch if you want to make a Christmas tree toy out of it.
