Alyssa sat down on the floor next to the table near the fireplace and pulled out a parchment from her bag. Professor Magnus had assigned them the task of making a Nautilus type hat out of the cloth that they had been given.

Alyssa decided that first she had to decide what kind of hat she wanted to transfigure the cloth into. She thought of all the possible nautical caps that she had seen before, like a regular Captain's sailing hat, or Captain Hook's Hat, even a Pirate's hat. Wait a Pirate's hat!!

Alyssa remembered watching the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean and loved the character Captain Jack Sparrow. She tried to recall what the hat looked like and once she thought that she had an image of it in her head, she picked up her quill and started drawing it out.

She first drew the outline of the hat, erasing the details when it didn't look right to her. She first drew in the front flap on the left hand side. She drew a straight line for the bottom of the hat, starting from the middle of her parchment and then angling upwards towards the left. Then she drew a curving line up and over to end at the back end of the straight line she had drawn first. She had the first flap drawn, now for the second.

Alyssa started from the middle, and connecting it with the first line, she drew a straight line angling upwards towards the right. Then she drew another line curving it up and over to join that line at the back. She was done drawing the second flap.

Now for the back flap. Alyssa drew a curved line across joining both left and right flaps at the back. Then she drew a little dome right in the middle of the hat to make it look like it was where the head would fit into.

Now that she was done drawing the tricornered hat the way she wanted it to look like. She made 2 Xs on the sides of the front two flaps, to make it seem like they were strings that were sewn onto the flaps to hold them up. Then using her brown colored ink, she painted the hat brown. And just for the fun of it she added a red feather in the hat.

Alyssa knew that making this hat was going to be hard but she knew that if she concentrated hard enough, that nothing was impossible. She sat back and studied the drawing of the hat
