Christmas is just around the corner. I'd recently made this fun Lil' Goblin Hat, but just missed Halloween time frame to post the pattern. So, before it was to late I thought how perfect would it be to turn it into a Elf Hat for the Holidays! I'm just in love with it! I hope you like it too! Enjoy!
