Squirrel V Hat

Recently I've finished working on my new hat design - Squirrel V Hat.


I made two matching hats for both my little girls. I spent some time to create the proper "squirrel" ears shape and so happy how it turned out.


The orange hat is size 0-3 months and is knitted with Cascade 220 superwash yarn. The terracotta one is size 2-3 years is knitted with Rowan wool superwash DK. I love both hats but I think that orange yarn keeps the ears shape a bit better.


Both hats are knitted in the round with size 4mm needles and have just one seam on the top. The ears are knitted back and forth and decorated with tufts.


The knitting pattern for Squirrel V Hat is available from one of my pattern stores:
