CROCHET HAT ORGANIZER – BASEBALL CAP DISPLAY HOLDER

As an avid crocheter who always has a project on my hook, I was thrilled when my son asked me to make something for him! I have two teenage sons and a husband who each have a collection of baseball caps—no exaggeration, they probably have a bazillion! While most of them are neatly stored in their closets, the few they wear all the time are scattered everywhere you can imagine.

One day, my “organized” son asked me to make something to keep his beloved hats safe. He was tired of them getting stepped on, losing their shape, or collecting dust. I was all in!

I came across a fun macramé hat holder and thought it could easily be adapted into a crochet project. When I showed it to my son, he was so excited for me to make him one! Take a look at how my crochet hat display turned out!

Do you love Macrame?

Here’s the original inspiration for my project—a cute macrame ballcap holder! The creator used brass circle rings as hangers and added a point at the bottom with fringe, creating a more elegant and fun design, but still following the same concept. It’s a beautiful blend of style and functionality that I couldn’t wait to adapt into a crochet version!

Now, Back to CROCHET. Yarn Love

To create the hat holder, I used a bulky yarn—Lion Brand Rewind, which I had left over from a large home decor project. I love this yarn because, even though it’s a home decor yarn, it’s surprisingly soft. That said, for this project, the softness isn’t a major factor, so feel free to use any yarn you have lying around, even if it’s a bit scratchy! It will still work great for this crochet hat display.

The Rewind yarn is a bulky home decor yarn, but I would consider it a light bulky. I’ve also managed to meet gauge using a heavy worsted weight yarn, so don’t hesitate to experiment with different yarns to find what works best for your hat display. Each yarn will give the project its own unique texture and look, so have fun and see what feels right for you!

How Many Hats?

As I started working on my display, I imagined it going all the way from floor to ceiling—LOL! Yes, we really do have that many hats. But thankfully, I checked it after about three hats, and I was loving how it looked. I kept crocheting and tried it again after adding a fifth hat, which was when I needed to add another skein of yarn.

The hats laid nicely, but after leaving it overnight, I noticed that the weight of the hats was starting to stretch the yarn a bit. I decided to wait another night to see if it stretched further, and fortunately, it didn’t. Yay! However, I do think it’s best to limit the display to a maximum of five ballcaps to prevent any stretching or sagging over time.

I also made a display for my daughter’s closet and only used four straps, and it turned out great as well! So, if your family is anything like mine and you have enough ballcaps to cover an entire wall, have fun with it! You can make multiple holders and hang them at different levels for a fun, layered display feature. It’s a creative way to showcase all those hats while keeping things organized!

Full Photo & Video Tutorial Included in Pattern

As a visual learner, I find it super helpful to see exactly what my project is supposed to look like. That’s why I make sure to include as much detail as possible in my patterns. My hat holder pattern is packed with photo tutorials that show how to work the stitches, along with measurements and gauge checks. I also include progress photos to guide you every step of the way, so you can easily follow along and see how it’s coming together.

To complement the photos, I’ve also included three video tutorials. A couple of them go into detail on how to work the stitches, so you can really get a clear visual of the process. Plus, there’s an exclusive video tutorial available only to those who purchase the pattern. This private video covers all the details of crocheting and securely attaching the straps, ensuring you have all the guidance you need to finish your project successfully.

Grab your pattern in time to make for dad!

You can grab your copy of the crocheted hat display at all of my pattern shops. It makes a fun and unique gift for Father’s Day, graduations, birthdays, or holidays. Or, you can bookmark it and pin it for later—I’m confident you’ll have someone to make it for soon!

And this isn’t just for guys—my daughter will have one in her closet very soon too! It’s a great way to keep any hat collection organized in style, no matter who’s wearing them.

conclusion

In conclusion, this crochet hat display is a fun and practical project that can be personalized to suit any space. Whether you’re making it for yourself, a loved one, or as a gift, it’s a creative way to organize and showcase your favorite baseball caps.

AUSTIN BUTLER NOSE JOB: THE SECRET BEHIND HIS TRANSFORMATION

Austin Butler has taken the world by storm with his captivating portrayal of Elvis Presley in the biopic “Elvis.” Fans are buzzing not just about his acting chops but also about his striking transformation. His chiseled jawline, captivating eyes, and especially his nose contribute to his undeniable charisma, leading many to wonder if his appearance has undergone a subtle shift. Specifically, rumors of a nose job have been swirling.

In this article, we’ll delve deeper into Austin Butler’s transformation. Did rhinoplasty (a nose job) contribute to his current heartthrob status, or is it simply the magic of Hollywood and the dedication required to embody the King of Rock and Roll? We’ll explore the facts, analyze before-and-after photos (keeping in mind the limitations of relying solely on visuals), and separate speculation from reality.

WHO IS AUSTIN BUTLER?

Austin Butler is an American multi-talented performer known for his work in music, acting, and modeling. He started his career at a young age and has appeared on TV numerous times, portraying memorable characters in various movies and shows. When he was seven, his parents divorced. He has an older sister, Ashley, who acted alongside him on the show “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide.

FANS NOTICED CHANGES TO AUSTIN BUTLER’S FACE AND BODY 

Austin Butler’s phenomenal performance as Elvis Presley in the recent biopic has skyrocketed him to superstardom.  However, along with the praise for his acting, speculation about his appearance has also gained momentum. Fans have noticed a change in his features, particularly his jawline and nose, leading to whispers of plastic surgery.

Online discussions are rife with theories about potential procedures like rhinoplasty (nose job), Botox, facelift, lip fillers, and even jaw reconstruction. Comparisons between older and recent photos fuel the speculation, with some fans pointing to changes in jawline definition based on photo angles.

When comparing photos of Austin Butler from early in his career to more recent images, his nose does appear slightly different. The bridge of his nose looks narrower and the tip looks more refined.

However, these differences are quite subtle. His nasal profile remains relatively natural looking and proportionate to his other facial features. The changes to his nose shape are nowhere near as dramatic as some celebrity rhinoplasty transformations we’ve seen.

Adding to the online chatter, a Twitter user pondered whether Butler’s appearance involved plastic surgery to embody Elvis “Why does Austin Butler look like he has had so much plastic surgery done on his face?”

Another Twitter (now ‘X’) user wrote, “I think Austin Butler as Elvis looks terrifying like he had [too] much plastic surgery, and it was botched.”

While a more sculpted jawline, defined nose, and sharper features are undeniable, it’s important to remember these are just observations. Austin Butler himself hasn’t addressed the rumors, leaving the truth behind his transformation a mystery.

DID AUSTIN BUTLER CHANGE HIS BODY AND FACE?

While some online discussions suggest Austin Butler has lost weight compared to his earlier appearances, the actor himself has only ever spoken about intentionally gaining weight. This weight gain was specifically for his role portraying Elvis Presley in his later years for the biopic. According to Life & Style magazine, Butler revealed his agent encouraged him to bulk up to embody the King’s heavier physique during that period of his life.

“My agent actually told me, ‘They don’t know if you can play older Elvis, so I think you need to gain some weight.’”

Butler went on to claim, “I really started to pack on some pounds. It’s fun for a week or so, and then you feel awful about yourself. But we were planning on shooting chronologically in the beginning. That quickly went out the window, and especially with COVID, it was just impossible.”

Shooting the Elvis biopic out of sequence presented a unique challenge for Butler’s physical transformation. To portray Elvis’s heavier later years, he aimed to gain weight. However, due to the filming schedule, significant weight gain wasn’t possible.

However, plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie offered a more nuanced perspective on his TikTok channel. He acknowledged the difficulty of drawing definitive conclusions based solely on photos, especially with varying lighting and angles.

While Dr. Motykie observes subtle changes in the bridge and tip of Butler’s nose, he emphasizes the importance of considering these observations within the context of the photos. He suggests the possibility of a minor procedure, like a “small tip graft” for a more defined look, but clarifies that it wouldn’t be a drastic alteration.

In essence, Dr. Motykie’s analysis highlights the limitations of drawing definitive conclusions about plastic surgery based solely on photos and online speculation.

His performances in Jim Jarmusch’s “The Dead Don’t Die” (2019) and Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” (2019) further proved his talent and versatility. His role as Tex Watson in Tarantino’s film was especially praised and introduced him to a broader, more mature audience.
