This playful elf hat is a seasonal must have. Use this pattern to make hats for the whole family.

The product in this listing is a digital pattern, not the finished hat. The pattern is available in English and German.

The hat is worked in the round without seams, from the bottom up. Instructions are provided for both Magic Loop and DPN knitters. Seven sizes are available with a measurement reference table (Preemie, 0-3m, 3-9m, 9-24m, 2-6y, S/M, L/XL).

Pattern support is available via e-mail and I normally respond within 24 hours.

SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate or adventurous beginned.
