Some simple sewing and embellishing can turn a recycled sweater into this supercute hat!
My kitty can look around with his shank-button eyes!
This one was made with a recycled T-shirt and machine topstitching for the whole face.

You can also add whiskers with more embroidery, machine topstitching, or whatever other techniques you like! Don't limit yourself to using the same embellishment methods that I used—check out these other versions I've made!

Or you can make a ferocious kitty by adding some felt teeth across the bottom!


 For this version, I made appliqué eyes with topstitching, a button nose, and whiskers stitched with yarn.
