Introducing an adorably festive holiday cap for kids—the Elf Cap! This charming elf hat comes in three sizes designed specifically for children: small (1-2 years), medium (3-5 years), and large (6-8 years). The top of the cap features a delightful soft elfin peak that adds a whimsical touch to any holiday outfit. You can choose to make it with or without cute Elf ears, depending on your child's preference! It's a fantastic way to keep them warm while celebrating the holiday season.

**Sizes Available:** Child Small (1-2 years), Medium (3-5 years), and Large (6-8 years). The finished measurements for each size are approximately 17 inches, 18 inches, and 19 inches, respectively. Since the hat ribbing has a good amount of stretch, it’s essential to measure your child's head for the best fit as head sizes can vary significantly among children.

**Materials Needed:**
Yarn: You will require worsted weight yarn, with approximately (70, 80, 95) yards in the Main Color (MC) and (22, 23, 28) yards in the Contrast Color (CC) for the elf cap. If you decide to include Elf ears, you’ll need an additional 15 yards of yarn.
Needles: To knit this delightful holiday cap, utilize a size 6 circular needle and a size 6 double-pointed needle—set of five.

This festive hat is not just a fun project but also a wonderful gift idea for family and friends. Make cherished holiday memories by crafting this adorable Elf Cap that your little ones will love wearing! Start knitting today and enjoy the joy of creating handmade gifts this holiday season.
