Knit Leia Wig

I designed this knit Leia Wig pattern for myself. The knitting pattern and sewn fleece version is now available through my online etsy store. The brown knit wig was a comission for Carrie Fisher's birthday.

Oy. Vey. Why are n00bs always trashing up the Internet with their fake laws? I'm (and several other 'ibles members are) just sick of it. Please, read all FAQs and policies before saying or doing anything that might be just a wee bit offensive! And, while I'm at it, please take the time to punctuate, you're in no hurry. Please note that I am asking nicely.

Please read the FAQ. This is a perfect example of a slideshow.

Why does this make me think of a bull cap, with horns and all?

You're the one that made this pattern? Awesome!! For Relay for life( a relay that is a fight against cancer ) my counselor at my school asked me to make 3 of those hats. I'm almost done with my 2nd one and just need to put together the 1st one. I'm making a brown, yellow, and purple one because thats the color of the ribbon in the logo or something like that.

This is great! You should wear it around every so often during the winter for the hell of it. It would be neat to see the knowing looks and the utter confusion of the masses. +1
