Great News!! The Crochet Minion Hat Pattern is BACK! But let me first explain exactly what happened to my original Minion Hat Pattern. Around the time Minions became popular I created a Minion Hat Pattern and posted it for free on my blog. It quickly become one of my most popular posts! I was happy, you were happy 🙂
Then something happened. I received a cease and desist letter from Universal Studios for the immediate removal of my crochet Minion hat from my blog. Totally understandable. It is a copyrighted image and property of NBC Universal. This was a hard lesson for me but I am so happy that they allowed me the chance to correct my mistake.
Then something else happened. A little less than a year ago, the craft education company Craftsy was acquired by NBC Universal and obtained the licensing for the Despicable Me movie characters. They wanted to buy my Minion Hat Pattern and re-publish it!
This is the absolute best scenario I could think of. I felt so bad that this pattern was just sitting here on my computer and nobody had access to it. Now Craftsy was able to use the pattern and allow crocheters to get their hands on it again!
The Crochet Minion Hat is now being sold as kit! This means not only will you get the printed pattern in sizes Preschool – Adult, you will get the yarn, and video tutorials!

The Minion Pattern is written by me and this is the same one that appeared previously on my blog with just a few tweaks and updates to make it more clear. The video tutorial was filmed by my friend Tamara Kelly from Moogly Blog!

What a lovely neat stitch. I have seen the Big Cakes at my Michaels but wasn’t crazy on the colours, which is probably a good thing as it meant I didn’t buy any. But with new colours coming out, I will have to go check them out!
I’m so happy to hear that I’m not the only one that hasn’t found the colors very appealing.
Love simplicity of the stitches , it makes the color pop, love it, I was licky I got this yarn when I was visiting my daughter in Reno, we don’t have it in Illinois yet, thanks again
It’s very pretty! I haven’t used the Caron brand cake yarn yet, but this is my favorite stitch! I love the reversibility of it too. 🙂
This pattern and the end result is so beautiful. How do you get the color change to always happen at the end of the row?
Yes I was going to ask that too!
great pattern…and this shawl is so pretty. Thanks for sharing.

Just wanted to let you know that there is a typo in the pattern.
Row 5-75 says to make a sc + chain 2 in the chain 2 space. I believe that should be a sc + chain 2 + sc in the chain 2 space.
I’m so happy to hear that I’m not the only one that hasn’t found the colors very appealing in the cakes at Michael’s..
You’ll be pleased to know that we have made minion hats for children in Haiti and for children of victims of human sex trafficking. Those minion hats have been the source of great joy!
Wow that’s fantastic, congratulations! Getting approval for a character pattern is something a lot of people dream of and you’ve done it! I love your patterns and have used them to make several gifts for my nieces and nephews. Your success is well deserved well done.
Does this mean the pattern is ONLY available through the kit?
Despicable me is a great cartoon. I’ve seen it with my kids and I have a feeling that I enjoy it more than kids. This is a funny feeling.
Is the kit/pattern no longer available? I tried the link and it gave me an “Oh Dear!
Looks like things aren’t going as planned, but we can get you back on track” message.
however, I’m an adult, I’d like to have such a great hat! just imagine, what reaction will have my mates at the college 😀 but to be honest, I almost haven’t enough time to sleep, I don’t tell about hobbies. maybe I should ask for help with homework https://writemyessayonline.com/? I believe this hat really worth it 🙂
