Using 4mm hook and DK yarn, make magic circle or ch4 and sl stitch to form ring, in pale blue

1) 8 DHC in ring, sl stitch join
2) Ch2 (does not count as stitch), 2HDC in each stitch around, sl stitch join
3) Change to dark blue, Ch2, 1 HDC in each stitch around, sl stitch join

5-8) Repeat rows 3 and 4 twice more
9) Change to dark blue, Ch2, 1 HDC in each stitch around, sl stitch join
10) Now onto the ears, continue in dark blue. Ch2, 1 HDC in each stitch for 6 stitches
11) Ch2, turn, 2HDCtog, 1HDC in next 2 stitches, 2HDCtog (4 stitch remaining)
12) Ch2, turn, 2HDCtog twice (2 stitches remaining)
13) Sl stitch around the side of the ear and along the edge of the hat to the opposite side where you will start the other ear
14-16) Repeat rows 10-12 to make other ear
17) Sl stitch around to the first ear, finish off

For the tails, attach 3 strands of yarn to the bottom of each ear (I used 2 pale blue and 1 dark blue) and plait together, knotting at the end.
