Crochet Pete the Cat
Hat Pattern
My kids are
currently obsessed with all things Pete the Cat. This cat holds a special place in my heart
because I Love My White Shoes was the first book my oldest son read to me. It became the requested Halloween Costume
this year and my littlest guy wore it while trick or treating. Here is my version of Pete the Cat. This pattern may be messy and has only been
tested by me, so if anything is confusing, feel free to ask or help correct my
pattern! Thanks, Natasha (mnopxs2).
