This Olaf hat, inspired by the hit Disney movie, "Frozen" has been my favorite "Frozen" character hat to make so far. I mean... Look at those eyes! Don't they make you want to just hug him... or I guess part of him... okay, just his head if we're being literal here...
I crocheted lovable, warmhearted Olaf using baby-soft white yarn, orange yarn and cotton stuffing for his carrot nose, grey yarn to shape his mouth and eyes and black yarn to add his eyebrows and twig hair. All of Olaf's features are crocheted separately and appliqued onto the hat. I also use very stiff yarn for his "stick hair" to ensure it stands upright. This version was crocheted for a toddler girl, so that's why the scalloped border was added along the bottom of the hat. For a more masculine version, I would crochet a straight edge.
Another cute version of him is with ear flaps and under-chin ties. I've also made him with ear flaps and braids or with a side-buttoned chin strap.
Please feel free to click on any of Olaf's photos above for the link to his listing, or visit my Etsy shop for other ideas.
Thanks for stopping by!
