Add a little handmade Christmas joy to your holiday crafting with this adorable Beaded Santa Hat Christmas Tatting Pattern! This festive little hat is made with tatting and decorated with beads for a touch of extra sparkle. It’s a fun Christmas tatting project that makes a cute ornament, gift embellishment, or handmade holiday decoration.
This Christmas pattern can be made with beads, or if you want you can leave the beads off. But, to me the beads add so much to the Santa hats.
If you’re wanting to make some handmade Christmas decorations or just want to do some Christmas tatting. This is the prefect tatting pattern for you. And be sure to check the tatting section of my blog for other Holiday tatting pattern.
