Little Frog Dog Hat Crochet Pattern – Frog Hat for Dogs with Ear Holes, Beginner PDF

Digital PDF crochet pattern – not a finished hat. Instant download · 22 pages · US terms · Beginner-friendly

Picture this: your dog mid-zoomies, ears poking through a tiny frog hat with a ruffled green brim. The Little Frog Dog Hat crochet pattern shows you how to make a cute frog hat for dogs with built-in ear openings, frog eyes, pink blush cheeks and tie strings – the perfect DIY dog Halloween costume or photo prop.

Two Sizes for Dogs with Upright Ears

One size does not fit all dogs, so this pattern includes two builds:

• Size M – medium dogs with upright ears (e.g. Shiba Inu)
• Size L – larger dogs with upright ears (e.g. Samoyed)

Built-in size checks show you exactly when to add or stop a round, so the hat fits your dog's head.
