Hello Kitty Snood
My friend’s baby, Emma, is turning 2 in less than2 weeks!! She’s such a cutie pie ever since she was born♡♡♡ She speaks many words, runs around everywhere, and shows many different facial expression! I’m so blessed to see this baby girl growing day by day and see that closely and be there for her as auntie-figure.
As her birthday present, I decided to make Hello Kitty snood!! She loves Hello Kitty (and Anpanman, a Japanese super hero anime). On Halloween this year, we even made Hello Kitty Jack-o-lantern for her! (You can read my blog on Halloween HERE) I wasn’t sure which one she loves the most, Hello Kitty or Anpanman…but I knew she would look so much cuter with Hello Kitty so I decided to go with Hello Kitty!
When I found Mousie Snood from Yarnspirations.com, I fell in love how adorable it was♡ I knew I had to make this for Emma and her sister Ellie. Instead of mouse, I wanted to make the snood with other animal or character. I remember she loves Hello Kitty and that’s how I ended up with this snood.
I hope everyone can enjoy making this adorable snood! Here’s free pattern for Hello Kitty’s ears and ribbon!
Materials:
- 1 skein of Bernat Pipsqueak Yarn in Vanilla
- 1 skein of Bernat Pipsqueak Yarn in Pink Swirl
- US N/10mm crochet hook
- US J/6mm crochet hook
- Stitch markers
Notes:
- Size – about 20.5in (52cm) head opening.
- Gauge: 8 SC and 10 rows = 4in (10cm)
- I used Mousie Snood from Yarnspirations.com for snood part and created my own pattern for ears and ribbon. Please click HERE to get the pattern.
- Because it is very hard to see stitches for Pipsqueak Yarn, I highly recommend you use stitch marker for 1st ST on every row and anywhere else you need to make it easier.
- Please DO NOT sell this pattern and finished product because Hello Kitty is licensed by Sanrio. It is illegal to sell their trademark character without getting their permission. Please make this ONLY for your personal use such as making for yourself and giving as a gift for someone close to you.
