A Few Notes From The Ninja: Designing Your Animal Hood
This pack contains a number of different ear shapes to create your animal/ character hood. These ears can be used with baby carrier hoods or with other patterns like hats or hoodie sweatshirts. Check out my “Just Add Ears” hood, which is a free pattern. Many animal ears are very similar shape. Folding the base of the ear can also create different shapes for different animals. Folding can also make the ears stand up or lay outward. Instructions are also included for “gravity defying” ears and removable ears.
When picking fabric, the sky is the limit and the remnant bin can be a treasure trove: Fleece, minky, fake fur, wrap scrap, swim fabric. Ears look cute in both matching quilters cotton, or in very different contrasting fabric. Making the inside and outside of the ear different fabrics is also super cute. You can be as creative with this pattern as you desire: it’s really just a starting point for your imagination. The possibilities are endless!
