Full Etsy listing description
A little cosy. A little cheeky. Entirely your own. Meet Midnight Mischief: a cat-ear beanie knitting pattern with a soft folded cuff and plenty of personality. Make it in midnight plum and lilac, choose your own colour pairing, or keep it beautifully simple in one shade. TWO PANELS. THREE SEAMS. TWO LITTLE EARS. Work two matching panels on straight needles using rib and stocking stitch. Sew the sides and top, turn up the cuff and let the corners become the ears. There are no separate ear pieces or crown decreases. FOUR SIZES, PLUS YOUR OWN FIT Starting sizes cover head measurements from 48 to 63 cm. The illustrated guide includes swatching, size selection and custom-width and height calculations, so you can tailor the hat to the wearer. INSIDE YOUR GUIDE • 10 colourful illustrated pages • Materials, gauge and abbreviations • Four sizes with clear stitch and row counts • Two-colour and one-colour options • Construction and joining diagrams • Folded-cuff finishing guidance • Two-panel row tracker and project notes • Helpful fixes and a little feline humour YOUR NEXT COSY PROJECT Suitable for confident beginners who can cast on, knit, purl, cast off and sew a simple seam.

Make one for a cat-loving friend, add a playful touch to your autumn wardrobe, or enjoy a satisfying handmade winter accessory. The hardest part may be choosing the colours.

A little practical help

What do I need for Moss & Meadow?

Be comfortable with casting on, knitting and purling. The pattern uses Aran cotton, is knitted flat and suggests starting with 5 mm needles. Read the gauge and measuring instructions before choosing one of the three written sizes.

Can the plant-pot cosy stay on when I water?

Remove the cosy before watering. It is a decorative sleeve, not a waterproof container. Follow the care guidance for your yarn and the finished project.
