Children's Earflap Hats

Earflap hats can also be made for toddlers. Here are photos of three. I have added pattern changes in posted patterns under "Hats". There is also a pattern change for medium or "Youth" size.

The hat fit perfectly for toddlers. They stretch enough to allow room without drowning the little child.











Email me if you have any questions on construction. They are fun, easy and rewarding to make and to wear.






I have used more traditional colors with these samples but any colors will work. Get creative. Give yourself a break. Give others a treat.

More Earflap Hats

These hats have proven so easy to make, I have posted the pattern on the Knifty Knitters group list, under Hats with the name of Nan's Earflap Hat. I am adapting the pattern for different head sizes with success. These hats were made on the green loom. The adapted versions use the red and purple looms.


Model Mark really likes these hats but Tonga climate is not friendly to earflap warmth.
