Pine Cone Hat

Can any of my knitty friends figure out how to make this pine cone hat? It look like a pine cone on the head and I LOVE IT! The designer also makes a PORCUPINE hat. Follow the Katie Mawson link to see it.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

I'm off to assemble the apple galette parts, having made the calvados apple sauce two days ago, the crust yesterday and now to peel, core and slice the apples and fill the crust and bake it. The calvados whipped cream will be whipped and put on top. and that's all I have to bake for Thanksgiving!
