Every Year I try to design a silly hat for Halloween.

Chickens are so popular right now, and so I started 

designing a chicken hat and really loved how it was

 working up.  I wanted it different from other ones I had

 seen and went for it. And The Best part about it, is that its

 easy and quick to Stitch up.

The hat base is basically a box or square hat, turned

 side ways to form the body of the chicken. It's all 

the details that make it so much fun.

It's a little bit silly and a lot of fun.

It's also a warm hat, so if Halloween is cold,

 I got you covered! And chicken hats are not just for

 Halloween, they are for every day!

I picked Super chunky yarn from my yarn stash.

the Bernat Beyond is perfect in thickness and color, 

the bright pink is a super fun change from the red.

But you can use red if you prefer. You can use

 whatever colors you like!
