As I searched for the perfect Elf hat I could not stand the thought of all those tails. My pattern eliminates all but 4. You can handle that right? Your tape measure is as important as your hook to complete. I used Caron Simply Soft Party but any medium weight will work. My 3-6 month hat used less than half a skein of the Snow Sparkle and Red Sparkle. Pattern easily works up to just the size you need from infant to adult. Add a Pom-Pom or jingle bell. Perfect for photo ops.
