My project is a minion hat with ear protection. I've got a friend who's daughter loves minions just as much as I do (Her favorite is Dave). And they live in an area that gets cold enough to warrant a hat like this. I wanted to do one that was a little more detailed than my earlier versions:
They were cute and all, but I love the blue overalls that the minions wear. So, I developed this one:
This hat is made very similar to the other ones, I just added more to them. By giving them overalls (sort of), I was able to add ear protection to the hats with the blue yarn.
Included in this post is a PDF Pattern. There's a lot of little parts to make on this, so I decided not to post the whole pattern here only the PDF link.

ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteI always hated to wear hats as a kid. Maybe if they had gotten me a cool minion one..?
ReplyDeleteI hated them, too! Now, if it's cold, I don't care about my hair, my head had better be warm!
DeleteI love your Minion hat, Eileen. The addition of the overalls is perfect!
