Minion Hat Free Knitting Pattern- perfect for Halloween!

If you have a child, chances are they love the Despicable Me/Minions movies! Since Halloween is coming up I thought it would be fun to make a Minion Hat Knitting Pattern. This hat (paired with overalls and a yellow t-shirt) would make a cute and comfortable Halloween costume that’s wearable all day.
This Minion Hat is an easy knit. It’s knit in the round with a few color changes. The eyes are crocheted separately and then attached. If you don’t know how to crochet, you could also make the eyes out of felt and hand sew them on.

I have more Halloween Knitting Patterns to share…in the meantime, Happy Knitting!
