The forest spirits from Hiyao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli’s movie My Neighbor Totoro have found their way to you! Knit your own Totoro hat -- or an army of them in an array of colors -- and never be separated from your favorite keepers of the forest. :)

This pattern is written at a beginner-intermediate skill level. Instructions are given for magic loop (although this pattern can easily be adapted for use with DPNs), and includes links to free video tutorials for each step of the knitting.

Because this work is based entirely on the creations of others, this pattern is intended for personal use only; I strongly discourage the sale of items made from it. Charitable giving is encouraged!
