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 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 it 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.
