Make a mommy & me version or gather your girlfriends and dress as the Sanderson Sisters! There are many ways to customize this hat. You will see that in the original pattern, there are directions to make this a Witchy Cat Hat by adding cat eyes, ears, and whiskers. In my version below I changed the colors, added a black stripe, and then stitched on crochet belt buckle for the finish touch. But what about making a jack-o-lantern face witch hat?! or a Frankenstein face on the green hat?! You will have to show me what you make!
For my versions, I made the size small and changed yarn colors at row 26 (4 rows of black) and then finished the pattern with a single row of the main hat color and added the brim just as the pattern reads.
I will be showing you all the details of my version of the Witchy Hat on OCTOBER 26 LIVE ON FACEBOOK. JOIN ME FOR A LUNCH & LEARN AT NOON EST at the Yarnspirations Facebook Page and the Red Heart Yarn Facebook Page.

Just a few notes about the pattern:
– The hat works flat in rows (not rounds) and then you will stitch the edges together using your tapestry needle when finished.
– I like that it lays flat because it’s much easier to add on any embellishments like a buckle, cat face, or jack-o-lantern face!
– Red Heart Super Saver is the perfect yarn for this project! It gives it a nice sturdy shape.
– The pattern for the small size hat (which is what I made) fits Ollie the Owl perfectly! He looks like he’s ready to go trick-or-treating! Scroll down to see Halloween Ollie 🙂
Happy Halloween Crocheting!

Not only was it poorly organized, making it difficult to follow, but the content itself lacked depth and authenticity. It was as if the author simply skimmed the surface of the subject without delving into any real substance. Additionally, the writing style was bland and uninspiring, which made it hard to engage with the material. Overall, I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for a comprehensive and well-researched guide on witchcraft and spellcasting.

I can honestly say "The Comprehensive Handbook of Witchcraft and Spellcasting" is one of the worst books I have ever read on the subject. Not only did it lack any practical advice or useful information, but it was filled with inaccurate and misleading statements. The author seems to have a limited understanding of witchcraft and spellcasting, which is evident in the shallow explanations and lack of depth. It felt more like a rushed attempt to cash in on the popularity of the topic rather than a genuine effort to provide valuable insights. Save your money and look for a more reputable source if you are genuinely interested in learning about witchcraft and spellcasting.
