Mad Hatter's Little Hat by Crazy Hairclip Maker

Recently I feel like a little mad hatter myself, well maybe not hatter but a crazy hair clip maker. When I bought a set of eight hairclips in store I fought I would use two maybe three, but it's so freaking hard to stop yourself once You start making them. I have so many ideas for hairclips and I am so excited to make something girly again :) well as girly as I possibly could, Mad Hatter is girly, right?!

Anyway do I even have to write I love Alice in Wonderland? Is there someone here who don't?.... Yes I fought I would here an awkward silence :)

Please enjoy the pattern and as always send photos here if You would like to share the results.

Materials:

• dark grey, white, ginger, putrid green yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
• hook 3 mm
• cardboard or a roll from a toilet paper

There is a BLACK cat on my head?!

I made the black version of a hairclip from my previous post for a custom order. I hope Marta will be very happy about it and will wear it everyday to work :P

If anyone missed the post with pattern here is the link:

I have to say I am extremly pleased with how he looks like ( a bit demonic) and I am so tempted to make one cat for each color of yarn I have, but who have the time :(. So if anyone of You will make one of those cats from my pattern please send the photos to: krawka.blog@gmail.com.

Maybe we will make a kind of "hair cat" gallery :)

There is a cat on my head?! - hairclip free pattern

Is there a cat on Your head? There isn't?! Oh no... I feel so sorry for You :) I have a good news for You, You can change it right know with my free crochet pattern.

I am in love with the idea of crochet hair clips and accessories so the cat is definitely the first of the series, one I have ready already is a pony so this will probably be my next post. 

But back to the kitten - he is cute and little and white, perfect for every little and not so little girl (or a boy).  If I didn't sale You the idea yet I can tell You he looks great on every hair color - I checked, and both on loose hair and as a decoration of a pony tale - as You can see on the photos. Another adventure is that he is ease to make even for a beginner and not that time consuming for the impatient ones.

All You need to make him is a white and black yarn plus a hair clip - You can buy one or use some old and unused ones.

Materials:

• white, black yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
• hook 3 mm
• cotton wool or other filament.
• hairclip ( Mine is the black basic clip almost 5 cm)
