Crochet hat with kitty cat ears

Watching the Disney film "A bad hairday" with my niece, Victoria, we both loved the kitty cat hat Laura Marano wore in the movie. The day after I was off  to buy yarn, As I am not a god knitter I had to try to crochet the hat. And here is the result.


Victorias hat



One hat finished - and one in the making...

70's crochet vest -

I could not resist trying to make the crochet vests Miu Miu showed at Resort 2015. Not very difficult considering that I didn't use a pattern. You will find patterns in Pinteres if you want to make one.

Minnion crochet hats (what not to do)

The Minions are back and now they have got their own movie, too!!:-). It has given me the motivation to finish some of the crochet minion hats I was making for the hat presentation last summer. Unfortunatly I was not able to finish them in time for the presentation. During autumn I struggled trying a lot of different yarn, a lot of different colours and making a lot of different types of eyes (oh, my - the time I have spent crocheting eyes!) Well, the result is not what I hoped for. Sometimes I wish I just would follow a pattern and stick to it.


This is the first one I made. The eyes ar kind of big (filled with cotton) and trying the hat on one of my nephews I realized it looked horrible on.

A plastic version !


A selction of minion eyes. 
The eyes are to small
I have a lot of different yellow yarn as I have been trying out the different kinds
Something wrong about these eyes too,


The eyes should be closer to each other. They do look like little bandits don't they? 

And how horrible can a pair of  crochet eyes turn out? 
The best one so far I think
