Angry Bird Red Hat

A while ago I posted my bomb angry bird hat pattern. Around the same time I created a red angry bird hat to, but I never got around to typing up the pattern. Luckily my notes were good enough that I was able to decipher what my pattern was.


The base of all my ear-flap hats is from RepeatCrafterMe's hat patterns, so the credit goes to her. I make most of my hats adult size because even children can wear them and have room to grow. You can get the base hat pattern here.

Materials
H Hook (5.0 mm)
Red Heart Yarn in White, Black, Red and Yellow
Tapestry Needle
Stuffing

I crocheted the base hat in red and then did the trim in white.

Now for the fun part: turning the plain hat into an angry bird!

Take a piece of black yarn and embroider a black dot in the eye.
