Very cute!
How did you like the movie? I'm on the 2nd book at the moment.
That is the cutest hat! Wish I had a little girl to knit it for.
AWE. SOME. I've already cast on with six balls of random worsted ends. Will post a picture to Ravelry when I'm done.
Thanks!! - totally adorable, as is the hat. I love a quick knit, esp. 1 week before Christmas.
Looks fabulous -- and I can't wait to see the adult version!
lovely thanks for the pattern
Of course I want to squeeze her. And the hat looks fabulous. Wonder if I could pull off the adult version...
Clever girl!! I'll run it by Amanda tonight - I'm sure she'll love it!
Thanks so much for typing up this pattern! I haven't seen the movie yet (or read the books, for that matter), but I really like this hat.
Cute, cute, cute!!
You could even add a long pompom to the top.
Absolutely adorable. Miss "P" might be getting one.
I have been looking for a pattern online for this hat ever since I saw the film... I just found this today :D thankyouthankyouthankyou :D
OK! I don't have kids but I know a certain cousin who's getting this next year (when her head is a little bigger).
And I wanted to see the movie before but now I know I have too!
Thank!
Wow, what a great pattern. I did two of them this evening for some extra gifts, with a few modifications to yarn amount and needle size. thanks so much for some fun knitting.
As yes, "The Head" looks good in it LOL!!!
I saw this on Ravelry. I thought it looked like Claire! 
Great hat!
I just saw the movie yesterday and thought the exact same thing! I'm thrilled that you worked out a pattern for it, thank you so much.
Merry Christmas
Great hat! Claire looks great in pink!
As soon as I saw that hat on screen, I hoped I'd be able to find a pattern online. Thanks so much!
Love the hat!!
Thank you so much for the Lyra hat! It's just right, and I have a daughter that will love it.
It looks just fabulous!! I love the Film and wished that I could make that Hat so i could wear it...but I know I never would wear it. Now all we need is to find out more detail of the Coat she was wearing in the Film. And I DO want to squeeeeeze you little on...she is so cute!!
That looks great! Love it on Claire and the adult version looks like a lot of fun!
Thank you very much for providing this pattern, happy knitting!
Saw the film last night & was hoping someone would have figured out the hat pattern - thanks! Gotta love Ravelry for making it possible for us to find you
Thank you! I am going to make this hat this week! I will let you know how it turns out!
Excellent and thank you!!
I have a niece that will love the hat and I have a lot of stash yarn...lol.
Thank you for the pattern! I totally wanted to knit one of these (for myself) right away when I saw it in the movie.
So adorable- thank you for the pattern!
Yay!!!!!!!!!!
I was thinking of trying to figure out this pattern and you've done all the work already. Thank-you soooo much.(:
thank you, thank you. I loved the knitwear in the movie, I couldn't take my eyes off of all of it. And Lyra's hat, well, it was the best. I'm very excited to knit this up for myself. And my daughter. And knowing my son, he'll need one too.
I love it; I love it; I love it!!! I don't knit, but I WANT ONE (or four - one for me and three for my girls). If you ever decide to get into the business of making these for profit, let me know!
The internets are amazing. On a very hot Australian summer day while watching the 'Golden Compass' (slightly jealous of all that snow) thinking how much I loved Lyra's hat and wondering if anyone had come up with a pattern for it, and hey presto.
Thanks a bunch!How fantastic!
Thanks to the gals over at Modern Yarn (Located in Montclair, NJ.) I was told about your posting and finally knitted my very own Golden Compass hat! Thank you SO much for posting the patern. The moment I saw the film, I said to myself, "I have got to knit that hat!"
that hat is great, i saw the movie and also thought i wish i could knit one. the little girls knitted coat was great too, i wish there was a pattern for that as well. great work !
Thank you! I learned 3 needle bind off because of you, and sheesh! I wish I had known about that before. What a wonderful seam avoider.
I used your pattern as inspiration, but sized it down for my daughter, who's 7 months old. I've put it up on Ravelry (I'm Ronica) if you want to take a look. It's adorable. I also love the ties--thanks for teaching me that, too!
Here's a link to a photo on my flickr.
Rowan in her Golden Compass Hat. I am really proud of this one! (I just wish she had a coat that went with it.)
Love that hat, I laos am jealous of your cute girl model and the head model too. I wish I had both of those to model my stuff.
It's mighty cold in NY today and even inside my house, perhaps I'll make a hat right away to wear while I knit and crochet. LOL
I've had this pattern bookmarked for a long time, after I saw it on craftzine (I think that's where I saw it...). And as I was about to crochet a hat for my doll, I found this bookmark again. I love it! I can't wait to make one for my head :P (The pic is in my homepage link)
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the great pattern. I have several GDs that will love this one
I made one yesterday for my daughter, complete with ridiculously huge pompon. She HATED it. I loved it, and so did one of the neighborhood children. It was so quick and easy to make, but I suck @ 3N BO so I used a crochet hook. Planning on making several more for raffle prizes ... is it OK to sell them if proceeds go to charity?
Thanks,
Towanda
Oh wow THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi!!
I do love love love that hat and I would like to crochet it but I just don't know how!!! Do you know if it is possible?? Where can I find a pattern???
I have to say that your hat is awesome, excellent job!!!
I LOVE the hat and the pattern was so easy to follow. I knit one for my 3 year old daughter and it turned out great. I have pictures posted on my blog. I also posted a link to your site on it so people could get the pattern ?!?
luv it i saw the movie and when looking for the hat pattern thanxs alot
Hi could you (I know it's asking a lot) come up with the same hat using 2 strands of worsted? I can handle 2 strands held together but my hands are very nearly 49 this year and can't hold that much yarn ongoing.
I hope you consider this I love golden compass in fact I own it and the hat is lovely!
Looks warm, comfy & snuggly. It is also very old fashioned looking like something I saw my mom & aunt wearing in photos of them when children in the 1940s. I think I will try making one or two or maybe more as I can think of a few folks who would like them for their little ones. Thanks.
Nice job! I don't know how to knit but was going to ask my mom if she could make this. Only thing I'd change is the frame around the face. It bulges quite a bit more than the one Lyra wore-hers is just slightly raised, not a big ridge. Could that be remedied by using less strands for just that part?
I am a beginner kitter. Is it possible for me to make this or does it look easier than it is. I know what most of your knitting pattern said. but i don't know what it means to cast on using the cable method, and also is working from both ends of the same ball of yarn mean, hold the beginning and end of the yarn of the same ball and knit holding onto the two of them as if you were knitting with one strand of yarn? Does that make sense? Sorry..lol. maybe you could dumb the pattern down for me a bit. I would love to make some of these for my darlings.
Thank you,
Charmaine
I really like this hat. I am wondering if it could be crochet of knitted on a round loom (knifty knitter) as a flat piece since I do not knit. If the piece is made into a rectangle and then stitched up the back as it appears to be it should work. thanks
