LOOM KNIT SANTA SCARF & HAT

Easy Childs Loom Knit Santa Hat & Scarf Set

I love these santa hats and scarves and knew that I just had to make up a pattern for the loom. I gave the original set to my nephew as a Christmas gift.  For safety, I made the scarf just long enough to go around the neck and lay inside the coat.  It is not meant to wrap around the neck. I'm thrilled with how the scarf came out and feel it's a nice match to the hat!
