The whole time I was making this hat Alan (this is him in the hat for those of you who don’t know him) and Heather insisted that it looked nothing like a pumpkin.  The colour was just plain TOO WRONG.  Alan thought it may end up being okay as a hat, and the colour was OK as a colour but it DID NOT LOOK LIKE A PUMPKIN.

I actually think it does.  So there.
