The elf hat makes such a great photography prop, and it can be customized for all seasons and holidays! I have been making this particular elf hat for over a year now, and it has gained so much attention. I just love the way the stripes work up and the endless possibilities it offers.

In this pattern you will get instructions for the basic one colored elf hat as well as the Valentine Elf hat, Christmas Elf Hat and 3 different versions of the Easter Elf hat! :) If you think about it, that is like 6 patterns all in one. You will also be getting the patterns for the heart, carrot and Easter egg elf hats!! Now, we are up to 9 patterns all for the price of one and all offering sizes newborn to adult. Can you see now how the possibilities for this hat are endless?
