The little bear elephant hat is a cute and practical hat with bear ears, which can be knitted with or without a neck piece. The hood is knitted both in the round and back and forth, and is shaped with shortened rounds. The hood is knitted in merino and mohair, however, the elastic edge around the face is knitted in two strands of merino to avoid the hairs from the mohair yarn in the child's face.
