This Little Ears Hat is a fun and playful project to knit! The ears are knitted directly into the bonnet, so there’s no need to sew them on afterward—everything is worked in one seamless piece. The hat features anatomical shaping, with decreases at the back for a comfortable, well-fitting design. It’s the perfect combination of cuteness and functionality!
