Easy Cat Hat - Free Crochet Pattern

Image
  This is a cat hat that is super easy to make. I used simple circle rounds to make the eyes. This is a small pattern to fit a pumpkin decor pattern - also available for free on the blog.  If you simply follow the pattern but measure it against your own head measurements - you can make it for yourself in any color you wish. Always a big thanks to Canva - for the cute graphics/fonts and ability to arrange a pattern in an easy to view slide show.

|No Ads / Ad Free Crochet Patterns| Free Crochet Pattern Bee Floaty -  a Victor Frog Accessory - Cute bee with big kawaii eyes smiling at you.  Victor Frog is an original pattern by Yan Schenkel (see Instagram @picapauyan) from her book Animal Friends of Pica Pau.  I designed this floaty to give Victor Frog a different accessory. When using a crochet hook in size B 2.25 mm with small amigurmi yarn like Premier Cotton Fair Yarn - the floaty fits perfectly around Victor Frog.  Of course, make sure to use similar yarn and crochet hook as the ones you use to make your doll. Attached is part 1 and 2.
