Striped Long Elf Stocking hat KNITTING PATTERN by Funky Baby

You’ll be sure to bring happiness and good cheer to any gathering when wearing this adorable striped long elf stocking hat. Why not frame the sweet face of someone you love with this soft, stretchy, modern version of a classic. The original and easy to understand four-page knitting pattern includes detailed instructions to help you create this adorable tassel or knotted top (directions are given for both, allowing you to choose) hat in a solid or stripe. Instructions are supported with color photos and offer both imperial (inches & yards) and metric (cm & m) measurements. The accommodating rolled brim edge allows this hat to grow with your child. It naturally rolls up when the hat is looser, and stays rolled down as the hat becomes more snug. Either way, it’s soft, stretchy, and supremely comfortable to wear! This hat never fails to produce a smile. Fun to make and to wear!

Additional supplies: stitch marker, ruler or tape measure, darning needle, and small scissors.

Knitting skills: knitting in-the-round on circular & double pointed needles, increases & decreases.

• The bow is not included in the pattern. It was just used for photography purposes.
