“You know what would rock? A SPOCK TOUQUE! Like, it would be black, and cut right across your forehead (like his bangs) and his skintone ears would be the part that covers YOUR ears!”                  --tripperfunster

And from that simple request was born…

Materials:

US Size 9 (5.5mm) DPN's or long circular for Magic Loop (or size needed to make gauge)

This may be the most awesome geek knit I have ever seen. And I have knit 1000+ Jayne hats. Kudos to you.

I'm really sorry but I'm Australian and 14 and I'd really like my Mum to make me this hat but she is being a pain and won't make it for me without Australian measurements. Could you please help me?

Oh Goodness, I'm sorry, I missed this comment! The pattern on Ravelry should have measurements in cm for you, but here you go anyways:

Materials:
5.5mm DPN's or long circular for Magic Loop (or size needed to make gauge)
3.5mm needles
Approx 137-183 meters black worsted weight yarn
Approx 22 meters flesh-colored DK or sock yarn
Scrap amount of brown DK/sock yarn
Darning needle

Gauge: 18 st and 18 rows = 10cm in unstretched 2x2 rib.

6" tail, and 6" length before brow bind off = 15.25 cm

That should be all you need!

This is awesome! Do you know how it could be modified for my 7 month old for Halloween?
