Stitching Hearts on Snow Hats

by Marie on February 2, 2009

These fun little hats are super easy to embellish. With just a little yarn, they’re perfect for wearing on Valentines day or out in the snow.

Supplies for Stitched Snow Hats:

  • knit hat – usually found at Target, Walmart, etc. for $1.
  • Yarn or Embroidery Floss
  • large needle – my is a quilting needle size: 16
  • scissors

Thread your needle with either yarn or floss and tie a knot at the end. I think both the yarn or floss look good, but if you use floss, double it over before you tie the knot. Also, I didn’t have a pattern to go from since these hats are the color red and unable to write on. Do your best to free-hand the heart and the XO shape. Then tie a knot on the inside of the hat when you’re done, trimming the excess.

Now you’re hats are ready to wear, sealed with a KISS!

Great idea! We have a whole stash of winter beanie hats in our closet. This would be a nice way to spruce them up!

I just have to say, I have been following your cute blog for quite a while (I came across it on a search for some pop-up pancakes or something, and I’m so glad I did!) and I am so incredibly impressed! SO MANY FUN IDEAS! You are one creative woman! I only wish you lived next door so I could glean a little more of the creative juices! :) Thanks for posting them- it has been so fun to try some of them with my kids. You make being a mom look like a party every day!!!! :) Keep up the good work!

Those are really fantastic, thanks for sharing!

Very cute. If you did need a pattern, you could draw one on tissue paper and pin or baste that to the hat. Then stitch right through the tissue, pulling it away from the stitches when you’re done.
