This is a 2 for 1 pattern! The Fireman hat is made so that it can be attached to the puppy hat just like Marshall or they can wear it separately!
This pattern was tested using only RHSS and Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn. Please pay close attention to gauge is you use ILTY. If you are a tight crocheter you will need to go up one hook size using the ILTY white. The white in this brand does not work up the same gauge as RHSS. The RED however does match up perfectly with RHSS Super Saver Cherry Red

Colored Numbers in parentheses at beginning of rounds indicate number of sts to use for size
