Medieval or Halloween Princess Set

This pattern will enable you to create a medieval princess style hat with chiffon train and a pair of matching leg warmers.

Super cute as a newborn photo prop (with sizes toddler, child and adult included for fancy dress).

If medieval princesses aren’t to your taste, why not try the set in black with Halloween-style trims!

FOR THE HAT, YOU WILL NEED up to 300 m of Aran or WW yarn in any colour you like, an appropriate hook, a stitch marker, some lightweight card*, 1m of elastic or ribbon for ties, 1-3 m of ribbon for trimming, a square of chiffon (or similar floaty fabric) and a needle for neatening ends.

*For photo shoots with a new baby, you may prefer to partially fill with soft stuffing for a more flexible moulding shape or leave out altogether.

Chiffon should measure between 20 x 20 cm and 50 x 50 cm square. Other trims may be added as desired.

FOR THE LEGWARMERS, YOU WILL NEED up to 400m of Aran or WW yarn in any colour you like, an appropriate hook, 1-3 m of ribbon for decorating (optional) and a needle for neatening ends.

GAUGE: 4sts and 3 rows to 2.5 cm (1”) in UK htr.
