Seattle knitter Megan Reardon is a creative force. She loves to design. So, when faced with an abundance of cheap, colorful yarn, she got an idea: She’d make a wig!

Though the designer thinks about and is inspired by Halloween all year long, this attractive bright pink faux-hairdo seems a bit too practical for a single holiday. Why not use it as a cap in cool weather? Or a rescue strategy for a bad hair day?

Knitting instructions for this are available on the knitty website.

I found myself wondering just what I could do with all that cheap, bright acrylic yarn one finds in craft shops. I also found myself thinking about Halloween. Add in a bad hair day and this is what I got. This wig is worked from the bottom up, the bound off edge is the center part. (knitty)
