Notes/Tips:
I had the bottom of the applique sewn onto Row 4 of my hat. When sewing the applique onto the hat, I found it best to start with the "neck" part first. Place the applique on the hat with the curve for the neck on the right-hand side. When attaching the neck, give it a slight curve. When attaching the left side of the ear that has the antlers, you will need to give the ear some shape. You may need to spread the antlers out a bit. With the slope of the nose, be careful to not make it too triangular. Thank you for using my pattern. Feel free to share this pattern and please credit the pattern to the Knotty Designer.
