Update: I received pictures of Binxy in his hat! True to their words this guy loves to dress up! Isn’t he gorgeous!?!??!

I made this hat by request, so wrote down the pattern as I went as I always do. My kitty Titus was not too happy about modelling it. He says I always pick on him because he’s a squishy marshmallow cat and doesn’t resist. Some kitties don’t mind hats, though, and even if it turns out they won’t wear it, it is fun to make and will give you a laugh! This hat might even work on some small dogs. It has an adjustable chin strap and the opening for the ears is pretty roomy, so this hat should fit most adult-size cats. It can be made entirely with features that are safe for pets with suggestions for an easier, quicker alternative.

Skill Level: Easy

You will need to know basic stitches, BLO, FLO, how to decrease a hdc, and some familiarity with working into the bottom of a chain. Other than that, this pattern is quite simple. It does require a good bit of detailed finishing, but I have given an easier option for the hardest parts.
