Of course, it doesn't have to be a cat - change the ear style and it can be any animal at all - the colors had me thinking both wolf and Totoro! In an orangey red it would make a great fox too. Your imagination is the only limit! There will be an added expense of more travel and hopefully this won’t deter our ability to provide consistent videos on a weekly basis. Change color every 10 Rounds. Work In continuous Rounds, moving stitch marker up each round. Add stuffing as you go, I found it easier to stuff after every 10 rounds. Hold the Contrast Color piece in front of the Main Color piece, with RS of Main Color against WS of Contrast Color. Using Main Color held doubled, sc the sides of the ear together, going through both layers. Work 3 sc into the point at the top, and leave the bottom of the ear pieces unjoined. Break yarn and leave a long tail for sewing to the hood.
Rnd 8-60 (or however long you want to make it): Sc in each st around, change color after rounds 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. Row 2: Ch 2, hdc into the first st, hdc, 3 dc in the next st, hdc in the next 2 sts, 2 dc in the next 2 sts, hdc in the next st, sc in the next st, hdc in the next st, 2 dc in each of the last 2 sts. Use seamless join to finish off, leaving long tail for sewing. A snood or cowl is endlessly variable depending on the yarn weight, stitch and length you go for. Chunky wool knitted on big needles gives a weighty look, and means you’ll finish faster, while fine, fuzzy yarn made with mohair or angora gives an airy, lacy finish. You’ll only need a couple of balls at most, depending on your chosen length. Rows 10(12) - 15(17): Repeat previous Row instructions. (35(43) dc in last row) Fold hood in half and sl st closed through both sides, leaving very last (center) st unworked. Weave in ends.

Alternatively, turn a knitted or crocheted scarf into a snood. Simply join the ends together to form a loop. You'll need some yarn in the same colour (or contrasting colour if you prefer). Remove any tassels or fringing first, then use a large-eyed needle to stitch the two ends of the scarf together. Row 1: Join Main Color (held doubled) with a slip stitch to an outer marked st. (Remove this marker.) Ch 2, dc in each st across, moving center marker up to new center st, ending with a dc in the last marked st. (Remove this marker.) Turn. (35(39) dc) Sew end closed and weave elastic through and wear around your waist, or sew the end closed and pin it to your pants! Scarf: (US - K, 6.5 mm hook) Row 1: Using Main Color yarn held doubled, FDC to recipient's arm span or height, adding a stitch if necessary to get an odd number. The gauge calls for 10 dc = 4 inches, so for a 5' 4" person, FDC 161. The formula is: Attach gray part of ear to blue part of ear, sew ears to hoodie between rows 2 & 3, weave in all ends.

The hood is written in two sizes, Child/Tween and Adult. The pattern is written for the Child size with changes for the Adult size in parentheses. When only one number is given, it applies to both sizes.
Hood: (US - K, 6.5 mm hook) Find center stitch of scarf and place marker (pm). Counting out from marked stitch, pm on either side at 17(19) sts. This is a cat hoodie of course, however, it is also very versatile. You do not have to put on the ears, or you can replace the ears with bear ears or fox ears. Custom make this to any animal of your choice! The creativity that is in this project knows no bounds! You could take it to a different level and line the face with fur around row 1. I’m sure you will find this to be a very fun and easy project. These make great gifts, and they are incredibly warm to wear!
