“The Greys”, specializing in human abduction, are the most commonly depicted alien species and I’m a huge fan! Not only is this crochet alien hat perfect for sharing your alien fascination, but it is warm too.

This hat is constructed from the earflaps up. The head is roomy to allow for the slouch effect of the hat, and the eyes and braids are added at the end.
