How to Crochet Kitty Cat Hat Tutorial

I made this this Kitty Cat Hat for an adult which is made with Medium worsted yarn and a J hook. This cute hat can be adjusted for kids by going down a hook size or having less rows. I uploaded a video if you need more assistance. 

If you tell others about my work, please only link back to my blog, but don't copy my patterns to your site. Also you can sell anything you make from my patterns, but don't sell the free pattern. Thank you!

Supplies:
