Anime Cat Hat


Whether you are an anime fan or not you are sure to love this kitty hat. I consider this a spring/fall hat, keeps you warm but lets your head breath. For cooler weather I suggest crocheting hat with two strands of yarn. Made to fit teens and adults.
Yup, another pattern with the giant N hook




What you need:
Worsted weight acrylic yarn in a base color and
 a small scrap of a contrasting color
Size N (10mm) hook
Size I (5.5mm) hook
Clip to keep your place
Yarn needle
Scissors

 
Hat:
Work in continuous rounds with N hook
  • Chain 2
  • Round 1: Work 6 sc in first chain
  • Round 2: Work 2 sc in each sc around - 12 st
  • Round 3: *2 sc in next st, sc in next st, rep from * around - 18 st
  • Round 4: *2 sc in next st, sc in each of next 2 sts, rep from * around - 24 st
  • Round 5: *2 sc in next st, sc in each of next 3 sts, rep from * around - 30 st
  • Round 6: *2 sc in next st, sc in each of next 4 sts, rep from * around - 36 st

  • Rows 2-5: sc
  • Row 6: dec 1, sc -13 sts

  • Row 14: dec 1, sc -5 sts

  • Row 16: dec 1, sc -3 sts
After you are finished crocheting ears stitch an "angry" emote on one ear.
The placement and style doesn't matter.

 
After you have stitched the emote sc each pair of ears together (one back, one front).
Fold hat in half then place and sew ears.



Make them in any color.
