Hi everyone,
I just wondered if anyone knows of a site that has a free Kitty Cat
Hat pattern for a child? It was a style of hat very popular for
little girls back in the 50's and 60's, and seems to have resurfaced
again. I've done a search and only come up with with variations on
the hat like this one:
http://www.blueskyalpacas.com/pattern_detail.php?patterns_ID=127
But, it's not quite what I'm looking for. My LYS also had a kitty
hat, but I didn't like the two seams down the back below the ears.
I have a feeling the pattern was in an old Patons leaflet, anyone
remember it?
thanks, Linda D. in B.C., Canada

Ha ha ha...when I saw this subject line I thought it was about knitting
hats for cats to wear and I couldn't imagine how you would get a cat to
keep it on, or even get it on without scratching you!
Probably because I was just reading a Knitting Daily post about sweaters
for dogs.

I have looked on www.ravelry.com (if you don't belong - join up, it's great
fun and a great resource) and came up with a few:
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=61208.0
http://www.knitsnotesetc.com/2007/11/pattern_notes_baby_hat_with_ca.html
You could adjust the sizing by changing the yarn thickness and needle size.
You could also just apply the ears from the second example, to your favorite
hat pattern.

I know the one your are talking about, and it was, indeed, a Paton's
pattern.
I have knitted many of them over the years, and I am almost sure that
there
is a replica on the net somewhere. Hope you find it.
Thanks for the link you posted, BTW. I think that my newest
granddaughter
will love it.
Higs,
Katherine
