Hey fellow knitters! After my last post, Christmas Angel Hat, I decided that I definitely had to make a few other Christmas-themed hats while I still had time and inspiration. I was on a roll, so I made a couple for my niece and another one that I gifted to my in-laws. I will be posting both designs if I can as soon as possible. As for today’s hat, the main feature is a row of gift boxes wrapped in colorful ribbon with a bow on top. During the design stage, I tried my best to make the details of the gift box look distinguishable yet easy to knit. You can find a thorough guide, with easy and neat steps on how to knit this hat in my tutorial video posted down below in the instructions section. If you get to make this hat, please share some pictures with me, I would love to see your work! I wish you all a merry holidays’ season.
