Fun animal crochet hats by Nazli

Mandalinarosa Hats
Owlhatlevent
Nazli makes the cutest crochet hats to the likes of owls and frogs. The owl hat, as worn by her brother, even looks like a pilot's hat when it's on. You can visit Nazli every weekend from 1-6pm on Prince and Wooster St. in NY where she sells her hats.

Nazli says, "Having learned knitting and crocheting from my grandma, I've been doing it for a long time now. I never follow a pattern and just go with the flow. What made me inspired making these hats was the fun of childhood and creating a hat which can also be a toy when it's not worn. Putting eyes and a mouth on them gives them a character and eventually the hat becomes more than a hat: a friend. The way to make these hat is just you start a circle and double crochet around it increasing, and then when you have the exact circumference of your head, just decrease a little bit and that's it!"
