The recipient of the hat, in her usual pose for the camera, a crazed spongebob fanatic, made for Christmas, 2008.
Thanks to Kate for the title of this post, it comes directly from one of hers...
I started this hat because of this:
She has some cool patterns and this gave me the idea for this. I also followed her pattern for the eyes and the puff ball feet and got the whole idea of earflaps and ties for the legs.
I did some random purling spots to make it spongey looking and then rather than decreasing, I made a flap on the top and made it square. Also I knit the tie and i-corded the legs, added the yellow legs and the red stripes for the socks. I over knit the smile and knit a couple of teeth. Honestly, I've never actually seen the show, thanks to the many images on Google.
