This is a quick and easy viking hat designed for a rat terrier head size. I thought it would be funny to make a viking hat where the dog’s ears were the horns. I think it will fit dogs with floppy ears, but I don’t know. It could probably be adjusted to fit bigger/smaller dogs, but it probably won’t work for a big dog. The hat is an ‘I’ shape with the ends sewn together, so it isn’t very complicated. The length of the front of the hat is 8”, the length of the back of the hat is 8”, and from front to back is about 4.5”.

This is my first pattern, so feel free to give me advice on anything. Wordage, pattern, even the color of the words. Hope someone has as much fun with this as I did. Dog shame gives me such joy.
