Have fun together. Talk politics while making and/or decorating hats. Any color, any material. Leave your pussy ears showing, if you want to. Be You!
‘Pussyhats’ Galore: Inside the Pink Toppers Thousands Will Wear to the Women’s March on Washington “Krista and I really represent both sides of this project. The people who want to be there but can’t, and the people who are marching on behalf of all of us.”

How to Knit a Brain Hat | March for Science Studio Knit says, “this is a great knitted hat, showing off your brainiac smarts all year round. They’re great Thinking Caps while studying and are sure to get some attention on Washington at the upcoming March for Science in DC. . . . What color is your gray matter? I decided my brains are a pretty pink and these hats look totally cute – or gross – in all colors, so get creative with it, your color choice is totally optional!
Get creative and decorate your hat with a few of your favorite things. There are pin-on buttons with sayings, regular or decorative safety pins, jewelry findings (I have some heart dangles and half-pair earrings), charms, novelty buttons in many shapes (including snowflakes) — bring your leftover notions with you to your local march to trade, share, and collect.
We are building our own safety net as we connect with each other.
Solidarity! Namaste
