Pop-up Crochet Bear Moving Ear

"This adorable crochet bear hat with moving ears hat will bring extra fun and laughter to parties! This unique design uses an air pump mechanism on the insides of the ears to make them wiggle up and down. At first, these moving animal hats might look complicated, especially if it’s your first time crocheting a hat. But they are easy enough even for a beginner crocheter! They use just basic stitches. Plus, for further guidance, I’ve included a video tutorial of the entire hat with detailed instructions and helpful tips for completing the pattern. The pattern is written for adult size, but I’ve also included a reference chart so you can adjust the head size of the beanie, all the way from newborn size and up. "
