Long Tail Stocking Hat
A free version is also available.
This was my son’s favorite hat, and for two winters he rarely took it off! I even made a matching one for his grandpa to wear while shoveling snow.
The Long Tail Stocking Cap is a fun, whimsical hat that works up quickly and can be made in sizes from tiny newborns through adults. Use classic Christmas colors, favorite team colors or any combination you love.
