International Cat Hats, Thailand

Welcome to the first installment of International Cat Hats, the Thailand edition.


The Inspiration



The Plan



The Reality


Mr. Greaseball is a cultured cat. Although he hasn't been able to travel with us internationally, he has always been fascinated with different cultures and I oftentimes find him curled up on top of our travel guidebooks. Therefore, when the urge to knit a Thai headdress (chadaa) overwhelmed me, I could only think of one model. Yes, that's right: Greaseball.


Greaseball says "Sawatdee Khrab!" (hello) to Mingus.


Stay tuned for more International Cat Hats. You've been warned.

    It looks a lot like a cone for ice cream, inverted. A beautiful cone, though! Does Mr. Mingus need one too?
