Santa Hat

This is a classic Santa Hat with just the right amount of fun to knit. If you can, it is best to measure the circumference of the person’s head you are making the hat for. This will ensure the right size. The hat is stretchy. If you are between the sizes listed, I recommend going up to the next size. **Skill Level:** Easy/Intermediate **Sizes:** 15” (17”, 19”, 21”, 23”) **Materials:** 1 skein of Worsted/Aran weight yarn in color (white), Color A 1 skein of Worsted/Aran weight yarn in color (red), Color B 100 g (3.5 oz) /220 yds (200 m) 2 - US 6 Circular Knitting Needles US 6 DPN Knitting Needles Crochet Hook size G (4.0 mm) 3” – 5” piece of plastic or cardboard (DVD Cover Works) Tapestry/Darning Needle Pair of Scissors **Gauge:** 16 sts x 24 rows = 4” (10 cm) in Stockinette stitch *Note from the designer:* I like to think of my knitting projects as special keepsakes to share. I take time to create something special and so I take the time to properly care for each piece. Create this fun hat and share it as a treasure. And, don’t forget that if you give it as a gift, include the care instructions so it will last in the hands of another.
