Stash-Buster #3 - Viking Helmet Helmet

Nope, not a typo: 
The Viking Helmet Helmet
(a Viking Helmet for the Ski Helmet)
Made for double whammy head protection.

As it should, it started with a stash:
and a pattern from "Easy Makes me Happy" and a helmet from the NVO.

The NVO has been wanting a helmet for his helmet since I made him this hat:
(Probably because it has become a "chick magnet".)

 That pattern was adjusted a bit to fit the helmet..just a couple of extra rows and a larger hook.
The goggle strap fit nicely through the loose stitches.
 Then horns were added.
It's all part of
Stash-busters 
Challenge 2013!!!

Come join in on the fun!

    Now he can be a chick magnet on skis. All right-minded women are drawn to men who wear horns. (Especially crocheted horns.) :)

    that's brilliant, I'd love to make one of these for my husband, but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't wear it!
