I suppose it would be better to have one of these around the house so there isn’t a repeat of last year’s Drunk Uncle Dave showing the kids that anything could be made into a hat.
I love it, but it is too late to make one for this year! Maybe it has ear muffs in it so you don’t have to listen to the conversation or arguments around the Thanksgiving table!
You know, there is a reason real feather are traditionally used, because when it looks like you ate the turkey dinner and then threw it back up and shaped it into a turkey hat, everyone is going to think you finally went from being eccentric to flat out crazy turkey headed lady whom is to be avoided at all costs. But on the bright side, you’ll have less turkey to cook next year.
#20, does your screen name refer to “soda”? I live in So Cal, but I’m from the midwest and say Pop, and people look at me like I’m from another planet (may as well be, but that’s another story…)
“Baby you look so damn sexy in that hat. I’ll bet you like dark meat, baby. I know you want my stuffing between your thighs, wearin’ that sexy hat and all. Just come here and give me a piece of your pumpkin pie.”
Now, how am I supposed to get this made by Thanksgiving if this is all the notice you give me?
(Srsly, I have discovered a contingency in National Novel Writing Month [NaNoWriMo] of people who claim to WANT crocheted turkey hats to do their writing in. So I wish this post had surprised me more.)
My great aunt had a hat like that. We all thought it was funny, until she took a walk in the woods. I hunter mistook her turkey (I’m not sure if it was the hat, or the neck wattle.) Worst thanksgiving dinner ever, but what where we to do? Waste the meat? That’s not what the pilgrims would have done.
here we have displayed the headdress of the high priest of the turkey tribe. the bigger the headdress the more highly regarded the priest is. this is often the last thing offerings see before their legs are cut off in an offering to the turkey god.
Is that turkey screaming, its empty eyes staring soullessly into the sky? Or am I getting it mixed up with clowns?
Wish I had “Addams Family Values” on DVD. I think I need to watch the Thanksgiving play/riot again.
When I was growing up we had thanksgiving at our friends’ house and we all, like 14 of us, adults and kids, wore hats at dinner: sombreros, cowboy hats, touques, fedoras etc.
Great news for hipsters who just can’t wait for December’s “Ugliest Christmas Sweater” party. Now they can compete in Novemeber for “Most Frightening Turkey Anus Jammed Upon Ones Head.”

Didn’t Joey do this one on friends (after ripping off the idea from Mr. Bean)?

turkey hats are so Last Year. I want a Turducken hat.
November 24, 2010 at 1:39 pm
Is she going in or coming out of that turkey?
November 24, 2010 at 1:40 pm
That hat is one hell of a turkey.
How does a sane person utter turkey & sexy in one breath?Lulled by tryptophan perhaps.
November 24, 2010 at 1:40 pm
Reminds me of the cult leader from the Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

I would totally wear this to Thanksgiving dinner just to see the reactions of my friends and family when I walked into the house. Priceless.

Sure, it doesn’t look all that sexy in this picture, but wait ’til you see the matching giblet pasties.
November 24, 2010 at 1:53 pm
Huh…I have that pattern. I bought it from her on Ravelry, only I have the knit version.
November 24, 2010 at 1:57 pm
It’s Carmen Miranda’s Thanksgiving hat!

I actually think this is fucking fabulous – like the spawn of a showgirl headdress and a yummy dinner – and I would totally wear it.
But then again my current winter hat is basically a giant hollowed-out plush polar bear head with earflaps that do up under my chin.
Maybe I’ve gotten used to a certain level of pointing and laughing and my adrenal glands are demanding I up the ante.
November 24, 2010 at 2:22 pm
Somewhere here is a politically incorrect statement involving this looking like an Indian (Native American) Head-dress, pilgrims, and Thanksgiving…..
November 24, 2010 at 2:23 pm
I wish this was underwear.
November 24, 2010 at 2:25 pm
She looks like a one-woman Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade float.

is her head considered “stuffing” or “dressing”, being that her head is halfway in the bird, halfway out?
November 24, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Well, she’s got me. That is, indeed, the sexiest crocheted turkey hat I’ve ever seen.
November 24, 2010 at 2:41 pm
#23: Nah, it’s the name of my Etsy store/blog/website/online persona – I do pop art paintings.
People say “pop” (instead of “soda”) up here in Canadaland, too. I always thought it sounded silly, though. My parents and I say “cola”.
November 24, 2010 at 2:45 pm
#26, well, I suppose that’s ok, too. *sigh*
November 24, 2010 at 2:53 pm
Zomg, I totally need this hat! Check out the cute little feet on the tie strings!

Thanksgiving is NOT sexy.

Why does the turkey look like he was killed by exposure to the Ark of the Covenant?
November 24, 2010 at 4:32 pm
here we have displayed the headdress of the high priest of the turkey tribe. the bigger the headdress the more highly regarded the priest is. this is often the last thing offerings see before their legs are cut off in an offering to the turkey god.

November 24, 2010 at 6:42 pm
I wish I could crochet or have this hat for tomorrow. It would’ve been perfect fuel for the mother-in-law’s “my son could’ve done better” fire.
November 24, 2010 at 7:37 pm
the tail feather part and the part around the cheeks is awesome, but the turkey neck and especially the head look rather psychotic.
I would also totally wear this thing. It would make me feel like Theda Bara (a silent movie star for all you young whipper-snappers). http://fuckyeahthedabara.tumblr.com/post/175820575
I would also seriously consider replacing the turkey neck and head with a Beaker muppet doll (I have one of those in the basemment somewhere)
November 24, 2010 at 7:38 pm
We’re hosting Thanksgiving dinner again. If I did have this hat in the house, I would totally wear it while serving the turkey.
I now have the “family tradition” for next year.

This designer is truly the queen of barking mad shit crafted from Red Heart Super Saver…everyone *needs* to browse her Flickr photostream.
This coat is a particular favorite…I think her goal must have been to use every color of Super Saver in existence.

@evacooper-I am more frightened by the makeup she’s got on. She looks like someone went crazy with the contouring.
I will never again feel silly wearing my Abominable Snowman hat. Never again. Because this hat exists.

Turducken hat! XD

Perfect for Beach Blanket Babylon’s holiday show.
November 29, 2010 at 10:09 am
I’ve always loved knitting, crocheting, and big, odd hats. This, however, has a faint barfy texture to add that extra…um…sex appeal.
I’ll stick to my pilot hats and the photorealistic stuffed turkey I found at a yard sale, thanks. ._.

I can hear legions of anguished stylish people screaming NONONOOONONONOOOWHYYYY
But I just pull on my Turkey hat and I never hear any sense anymore!

I actually really want this.
