After creating the hats and the toys, and both being quite popular, I turned my head to the 2 Eyed Minions, in both toy and hatforms. Check out both patterns. I’ve made the different so that you can chop and chose various elements for your own unique hat.

All my “Despicable Me” patterns are available here for free
