International Zeus Hat

I found this pattern on Ravelry. The International Cat Hat by Stacy Mar, modelled after Thai ceremonial headpieces. You know I immediately thought of Zeus.

Who else is cosmopolitan enough to wear a hat like that? Who else is handsome enough as to not be overshadowed by such a spectacular hat? You feel me. So I got to work right away on this hat.

After I finished--it was a quick knit (Probably would've been quicker if I'd only started once. Count your stitches after casting on, people... Or at least sometime before you've knitted an inch.) Anyway, after I finished, I showed it to Zeus.

He was... polite.

Patwoman: Look at this hat, Zeusy!

Zeus: Uh, yeah. It's nice.

Patwoman: I know! Great color, great texture...

Zeus: Yeah. Nice.

Patwoman: Try it on.

Zeus: What??? It's for me?

Patwoman: Yes, it's for you, silly. Let's try it on.

Zeus: Back off, lady. I will cut you!

Patwoman: Aw, Zeusy, I made it especially for you. Aren't you even going to try it on?

Zeus: OMG. Thanks for the guilt. Okay. Okay. I'll try it on. But no pictures!

Patwoman: No pictures. I promise.


Lucky for me, cats do not have access to the internet. Mwah-ha-ha-ha!
