I saw this gem while searching for a toy pattern on Lion Brand’s website.
i gasped as I saw this:
- ACK!!!
OMG. it’s a hideous crochet hat! Doesn’t it look crazy??? my first thought was….The Borg Queen
- The Borg Queen
I guess the simliarities really lie in the facial expression. But can’t you see some nut crocheting this hat so the Borg Queen can keep her slimy bald head warm? hahahaha
If you really want that hat pattern…here it is.

Even setting aside the huge poofiness of it, there’s no way I’m making that many bobbles, lol!

Huh, I just saw this pattern today and like it. If you have dreads or know someone that does, you’ll understand.

Maybe her brain is really huge and we shouldn’t be laughing at her…

That reminds me–I’ve got to pick up some cauliflower at the market.

Kooky. Daring. Retro.
Wouldn’t be caught dead in it.

reminds me of the thing the one teacher in Harry Potter wore to hide Valdemort who was in/on his head.

LOL @ Flora! That’s too funny.

Oh my. OH my! OH MY!
July 19, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Hmmmm…. I actually like this one!

Is that a hat…. or a head-wound bandage?

My daughter says that THAT looks like a squid latched onto someone’s head…

haha… i actually saw this too and found it quite vomit-inducing. the hat looks like a parasite that’s slowly sucking the life from behind her eyes. wait…then again, i kinda want to make one now. can you imagine the power i’d have?!

This kind of looks like one of those aliens that attaches itself to your and then sucks your brains out. Also like a large bunch of cauliflower.

Um, Jiffy Pop!

I like it a lot–a color would be far better, though. Hey, sometimes you need a little retro in your blustery day. God knows something’s gotta lift your spirits on the way to work…

Note to the Lion Brand designers:
Bobbles, popcorn, picot… these are things we use as accents. Making something like this is like papering your entire wall with what was supposed to be trim. Or a song that consists entirely of a raucous guitar solo. It’s loud and strange and waaay too much of a good thing.
