The infamous droid that has strolled into hearts in all six of the Star War movies can now be adorned in an unlikely place. Few are unaware of him but you can show him off on your head. Check out the R2-D2 beanie!



Perfect for being nerdy and keeping your head warm or some cheesy yet sweet halloween costume, Carissa gives the COMPLETE details on how to make your own R2 noggin warmer. Of course, this requires some skills and probably isn't for beginners, but no better time to start, right? There are even image size/patterns that you can copy depending on how big your dome is.

The pattern seems a bit complicated to the untrained knitter but I am sure the end result is rewarding, assuming you can pull it off. And once you get one, don't forget to make those beeping noises!
