I'm a little picky when it comes to winter hats on kids--although you'd hardly know it looking at our ridiculous hat collection. I like hats with ears but not horns. I like skull caps on girls but in more boyish colors. And I always like elf hats. The wool jersey elf hat fom Mabo Kids definitely satisfies all my criteria--cute, affordable, and with a playful shape but a sophisticated stripe. Knot it if you like that look better, but I love it long and as elf-like as possible. There's even a cute little scarf to match. Sweet! -Liz
