One of my friend's nephew adores Elmo, so I decided to make him a hat to wear this winter.

For the children's hat pattern, I utilized my favorite hat pattern by RepeatCrafterMe.  I created the toddler size hat in some leftover red RedHeart yarn.

For the eyes and nose, I utilized another crocheter's pattern.

For the mouth, I created two rows of single crochet in black and decreased on both ends.
