Knit Holiday Hats with Fox and Pine Stitches

by

Fox and Pine Stitches has an array of holiday-themed knitting patterns for you to choose from, if you’re looking for Santa hats, stocking caps or other projects with a winter theme. I couldn’t decide which ones to share so here’s a whole bunch for you to look through. The best part? The patterns are all free and usually offer a range of sizes so you can stitch them up for the whole family.

We need to start with the super adorable Christmas tree hat, which would be perfect for a newborn photo shoot as shown but is sized for kids and up to adult women. It uses super bulky yarn and you can use little scraps to make the ornaments.

The Santa Pixie Bonnet is a super cute bonnet-style hat for kids aged newborn to 5+ years. It uses worsted weight yarn in two colors.

The Double Pompom Christmas hat is classic red and white, though you can work it in other colors, and uses chunky yarn for quick knitting. Of course the highlight is the pompoms at the top that give the pattern its name. It’s sized from newborns up to women’s size.

Make a Santa stocking cap in worsted weight yarn for everyone in the family (newborn through men), or make it an elf-styled stocking cap with stripes. (There’s a chunky weight version, a super bulky version and a worsted weight version of that one.)

And if you’re looking for holiday-themed beanies, there are lots of options. Check out the Santa hat pattern made in super bulky yarn, or the Santa belt pattern, also in super bulky. Or make a hat with a truck hauling a Christmas tree on it. It’s a worsted weight pattern made in all sizes through adult men, and the colorwork is added with duplicate stitch. (If you love the Christmas tree farm look, there’s a coordinating hot water bottle cover, too.)

There are also plain and striped beanies to give a bit of a holiday look without being too Christmasy. Find chunky and worsted weight versions, or a similar style with ear flaps. So many options!

Knits to Make for Your Labubu

Maybe it’s not your Labubu, but if you’ve ever looked at one of those creepy cute dolls and thought “what that thing needs is a sweater,” you’ve come to the right place. These Labubu knitting patterns are super cute and easy to make whatever your skill level. 

If you want to keep it super basic, there’s this Labubu sweater from flourish AND fiber. It uses sock yarn and is worked from the top down in the round with a bit of ribbing on the edges but otherwise in stockinette stitch. It says it’s meant to fit all current regular Labubu plush pendants. 

Another cute pendant project is the Bubu Cardi by Ginko B. This free Ravelry download uses fingering weight yarn and only uses about 35 yards of yarn, so it’s a perfect scrap knitting project. 

Give your Labubu some springtime flair with this sweet little dress pattern by About Yarn. It’s for a 6.5 inch/17 cm doll and is worked in the round using DK weight yarn. 

Or get them ready for cooler weather with this cute beanie from Stephanie Connolly. Available as a free Ravelry download, this pattern uses DK weight yarn and has a hole in the top for Labubu’s ears and pendant to pull through. 

If you want a more whimsical look, try the Labubu headdress by Shino Craft. This one uses sport weight yarn and makes your critter look like a flower. You can buy it on Ravelry.

Add a touch of colorwork with this adorable heart sweat for a Labubu. This pattern is from kelmadeSG and uses fingering or DK weight yarn (maybe depending on what size doll you have?) and is worked flat in pieces. 

Shirley Durmaz made this cute hoodie for a Labubu with two strands of fingering weight yarn (or you could use a DK weight). It’s available on Ravelry.

If your Labubu fan is also a Taylor Swift fan, you’ll want to knit the free Labubu V Neck Cardigan, inspired by Taylor’s Folklore sweater. It uses fingering weight yarn and you can find it on Ravelry.
