Step 01
Measure your Dinkum Doll’s head (leaving an additional 2cm at the end to glue the tab) and cut a cardboard strip to size (approx. 2-3cm wide). With a hot glue gun or stapler, join the ends to make a circle. This will be the base of your knit hat.
Cut 30-40 pieces of yarn that are 40-45cm long depending on the doll's head size and yarn thickness.
-
Step 02
Double up each piece of yarn and make a loop around the piece of cardboard. Pull the ends of the yarn through the loop.
-
Step 03
Repeat Step 2 until the cardboard base is filled. Make sure to pull each piece of yarn tightly so it stays in place.
-
Step 04
Twist and push the ends of the yarn through the hole so you turn the hat inside out.
-
Step 05
Use a piece of yarn to tie a double knot.
-
Step 06
Trim off the excess yarn to create a pompom shape. And voila! A cosy, no-knit hat for your Dinkum Doll.
