It is a well known fact that dachshunds detest coldness of any kind. Only four inches off the ground, it is difficult for these pups to stay warm in the wintertime. Even a little bit snow is chest deep for these little doggies, and the prospect of braving the cold can make them reluctant to go outside--(even to do some important business). Obviously, these cold sensitive creatures need all the help they can get, and this knitted hat is the perfect solution!

One of my best designs ever, this hat stays on beautifully and can even endure the “sake test.” Moreover, the kitty cat ears at the top of the hat provide some cozy room for your dog’s ears, making this design a super comfortable and practical choice. This hat is as cute as it is functional, and it brings a smile to everyone who sees it. The suggested yarn is simply heavenly to work with. Your miniature dachshund will love the feel of this super soft, nearly weightless hat. The knitted hat will keep your doggie’s ears nice and warm without inhibiting movement. This pattern is worked both flat and in the round, and is entirely seamless! The yarn is inexpensive, and comes in lots of fun colors! The instructions for this knitting pattern are extra detailed and super clear, so you can rest assured that there will be only smooth sailing as you coast through this super fun knitting project. Plus, this design describes how to work some super fun stripes!
