HELP! Need Harry Potter sorting hat pattern
 

Need help! My almost-nine-year-old granddaughter wants a Harry Potter themed party for her bd next month. She needs a sorting hat. I have seen a pic of one at Target, but I would love to make her one. Any ideas? You would make her and her 72-year-old grandmother very happy!

Here's a tutorial starting with a commercial pattern that might work for you

I find it interesting that there were about 4 or 5 patterns to crochet and sorting hat. I would never have thought of crocheting one.
