Every little (or big!) pilot needs a Crocheted Aviator Hat! Perfect for play or a cute accessory for chilly weather. You can find the Cardboard Box Airplane tutorial HERE. And you might recognize the Goggle pattern… It’s the same as my Sleepy Owl Mask! I love when I can re-purpose old patterns 🙂

Now you will want to
Surface Slip Stitch the circles to make the “eye holes.” Surface slip stitch along the the same place as your single crochets that were made around the edge of the goggles.
Sew the goggles on to the front of the hat. With your tapestry needle, sew just under the top of the SC stitches around the edge of your goggles.
Attach bulky yarn one more time to make the “strap.” Begin in the middle edge on one side of the goggles and surface slip stitch around the hat the other side of the goggles. Follow along one row of DC’s to make sure your line is consistent.
Now you are ready to take flight!
