These are the festive beanies you need this holiday season! Not only are they cute and Christmassy, but they will keep your head and ears warm too! I am posting the pattern for sizes Newborn to Adult. Make one for everyone! Santa and Elf are the perfect duo for these Crochet Buckle Beanies and it’s just another great way to use my Crochet Belt Buckle pattern. You will see that I used the crochet buckle on these Witch Hats but they also work for Santa, Elf, Leprechaun, and more!
