How do you get the ears to stick up? Mine want to flop down

In reply to Jacki. Hi Jacki! I usually knot and then weave in the ends because I really want it secure. But if you skip the knot and weave in a long enough length, like at least 6 inches of yarn, which is technically the "correct" way to do it, the friction should keep it in place just like any other woven in end. Hope that helps!

Just about finished assembling the hat! So easy! On to the whiskers now – do i have to sew the whiskers down at either end? Wondering if I don’t how they will stay in place?

In reply to Andrea. No, you will eventually need dpn's as you will have too few stitches to work on circulars.

Hi,
I’m sure you could, you’d just have to try some different needle sizes until you got the right gauge, 20 st = 4 in.
Good luck!

Is it possible to convert this pattern using 8ply yarn for Australians? 🙂

Hi!
I have never tried that, but if you have a long circular, you can definitely do magic loop method! Happy knitting!

Hi..darling pattern…I also do not knit with dpn’s…could a very small circular work? I think they even make six to twelve now. Thank you so much for sharing!

In reply to Esra.

Hi!
If you use the magic loop method, you won’t need double pointed needles, but if you’re asking if it can be knit flat and not in the round, no, the instructions I’ve written are for knitting in the round. Hope that helps! 🙂

Thanks a lot for that great pattern!:) One question though, is it also possible to make it without double pointed needles?

Thank you again!
Esra:)

In reply to Linnéa. hello! No, because you're knitting in the round, you knit all the stitches to get stockinette stitch (the latter part that you're talking about). If you were knitting something flat, you're right, you would knit one row and purl one row, but in the round it's all knit stitches! Have fun and thanks for visiting! :)

Soooo in Love with this cat-hat! I can’t wait to try this for my soon-to-be-born nibling! ??

One question though: The instructions say first to rib knit for 5 rows, then for the rest “Knit all rows until the hat is about 4 1/2 inches long.” In the picture those 4 1/2 inches look very purled to me … How do I create the effects that make the first five rounds and the following 4 1/2 inches look so different. Shouldn’t the latter part be purled somehow?

Thank you SO much for providing this amazing pattern for free!

Best regards from snowy Sweden!

I’m sorry, I don’t speak Italian. Maybe you could try Google Translate? Good luck!

Mi dispiace, non parlo italiano. Forse si potrebbe provare Google Translate? In bocca al lupo!

I just found the cutie pink/grey cat baby hat; Love your ideas. I have knitted since I was 4, and it is my de-stresser. I will enjoy getting your ideas through e-mail; don’t do the other social media things.

Thanks so much, Rosie Morgan,

Visiting from the sits girls link up…This is a very cute hat! I love that you’ve used two tone ears. And the photos are great for the face stitching, it makes things really clear. I’m adding this to my to do list! http://www.itsmariemade.blogspot.com
