This is a classic crocheted beanie with stitched-on bulgy eyes, upright ears, nose and a “snout”, made from soft acrylic yarn. This would make a great gift for any cat-lover or cat-owner (or Garfield fan). This pattern is easy to customize with whatever colors you would like. Make it look like your own cat!

This crochet pattern is created in a way that makes it very easy to follow. It has photos along the way, easy-to-follow directions, and diagrams. While this hat looks complicated, I have broken it down into many simple steps. There are steps to customize the hat for any size, from newborn to adult man.

The pattern will be emailed to you within 24 hours (but closer to 1-3 hours) of your purchase. Once the pattern has been sent there are no refunds.

This pattern may be a little tough for beginners, but they’ll get through it. Be warned, though: this will take a while and there are lots of little steps. This is no day-project.

This is a beautiful and rich wool blend yarn which has been crocheted into a popular chain-style neckwarmer. Each chain is thick and when paired with the ten loops, it creates a cozy and warm scarf. There is a knot around all the loops which keeps it in order, while giving it a funky asymmetrical look.

The color is a deep, dark shade of dark teal, perfect with your winter coat or with a springtime tank top.

This is made of the following materials:

• 100% acrylic yarn

When you click Add to Cart, you will see yarn options. If you would like acrylic yarn, there is no extra cost. However, if you would like a wool, wool-blend, or cotton yarn, there is an added charge.

Hand wash and lay flat to dry.
