Free Crochet Patterns.
These are called "Mini Hats" Because the sit on top of the head.
You can add ties to keep them on.They are intended as
 photo props or for fun costumes, not for warmth.

The Model in this photograph is my Dog,
He is a professional Dog Model.
He loves to model and is paid a very high salary,
of  dog treats for every modeling session.
He often" whines" for a raise, and I am so appreciative of 
his work that I  have been known to give him 
several "raises" in one photo session.
These fun Little Hats can be used for 
human photo props too!
They are perfect for setting on a baby's head,  
or even as on a adults head for fun!

Yoga Sock Crochet Pattern



Yoga Sock Crochet Pattern By
 Sara Sach of
 Posh Pooch Designs
Well, I didn't know I needed Yoga socks,
 until I started yoga!  LOL!!
I used to think it was silly to have socks without heels.
 I started doing Yoga and realized just how
 important they actually are.
You need your toes and heels out to
 keep from slipping off your yoga mat.

Here is a video I made to help you, 
and also, to help you adjust them to any size foot.


You can see this Video on my Yotube channel at this LINK


I have made this pattern using different weight yarns, 
so it is important to measure you ankle, 
Before you get stated.


This Pattern is now available in a PDF file Download

And also includes the Yoga bag pattern.
