Lavanya's 3 young children sit on a bean bag with green, brown, and yellow knit caterpillar hats on.

These hats were lovingly inspired by the Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars we see in our garden every spring, summer, and fall. The pattern has easy written instructions for the stranded color work and there are 5 different size options so you can make caterpillar hats for the whole family!
