Product Details

I knit lots of hats as fundraisers for local shelters and was asked to design a simple pattern for others to do the same. This 5-step pattern is the result.

(1) The background is knit on straight needles as a striped rectangle.

(2) The fabric is folded in half and seamed across the top using a 3-needle bind-off.

(3) The face is worked in duplicate stitch.

(4) The side seam is sewn.

(5) The ears are formed. The hat is ready to wear.

I use Red Heart Supersaver worsted weight yarn because of the large variety of colors. Let your imagination run wild! Start with a striped hat, then try variations of the basic pattern for a colony of cat breeds, even tigers and lions.

The colorful 13-page pattern includes a wide range of sizes, with written instructions and charts for all. There are also how-to photos and illustrations, plus tags to print and tips on how to market the finished hats for non-profit fundraising.

You'll need 2 oz. of the MC, 1.5 oz. of the CC and small yarn pieces for the face details.
