Teo's Fox Hat~ 2013

Teo (Mateo) is 8 weeks old now! 
He promptly grew out of the baby bonnet I made him, so it was time for a new hat! 
Turns out it fits him perfectly, not much room to grow. 

Ear pattern is from Kristen Cooper's Woodland Fox Baby (Ravelry Link) hat patern.

The hat pattern is my creation. 
I wanted to make earflaps and a button band strap to keep it on him.

Malabrigo worsted merino yarn in Garnet
Yarn held doubled and knit on a sz. 9 needle.


 I turned the ears around though, so the knit side showed 
from the back and the white inner ear covered the garter side. 


Button is from my vintage button jar collection. Perfect color.
 

Cute overload.
