My cats may hate me for this, but I love to make cute hats for them to wear. I know that they will only tolerate wearing them long enough for me to take a few photos, but it is worth it. We decided that the girls needed a crochet unicorn cat hat to add to their collection.
This hat is very easy to make. I used a simple single crochet hat for the base. After that I made a unicorn horn and cut up some yarn to sew on the top as the mane. It turned out very cute, and didn’t take me too long to make.
For this pattern I used Red Heart Super Saver yarn.
