Santa Hat Crochet Pattern

In order to complete the Pom-Pom Snowman with a beautiful hat, I crochet a Santa Hat for the snowman ornament to wear. The Santa Hat Crochet Pattern is built from easy and quick-to-make single crochet with continuous rounds and a decrement of stitches.

The pom-pom snowman with this Santa Hat is part of the embellishment I made for my kid’s Christmas Ornament Stocking.

The size of the Santa Hat is 2 3/4″ in height where I crochet it with baby yarn and a 3mm crochet hook. You may upsize it with bulkier yarn and its corresponding crochet hook or downsize it by using lace thread. Add a small pom-pom at the tip of the Santa Hat to complete upon finishing.
