I know I’ve said this so many times in the past - and it still remains the same - there’s just something about foxes that just fascinates me. I love the majestic creature from its look to its colors and everything in-between.
This project was easy to complete and the perfect colors for the fall season. I used “I Love This Yarn” from Hobby Lobby in Terra Cotta and White.
I hope you all will enjoy this project as much as I enjoyed designing it.

Pompom:
I used the White yarn and wrapped around 4 of my fingers approximately 50 times. I then tied a double-knot in the center and trimmed the ends. Shape pompom and attach to top of hat.
You can wear the hat on either side. One side the cluster stitches puff out; on the inside the stitches do not puff out. The hat looks great both ways. If so desired, make a 2nd pompom to attach to the opposite side so you will have a pom on both sides.
Either side of the hat can be worn and both sides look great to me!!!
