If you read my blog, you know my mom and sister have been crocheting hats for Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes & fillers to sent to the OCC processing center. They decided to put a "note" on them so the child would know it was a sign of love. They came up with these cute tags to put one. My mom also made a version for me to share here that says "Made by hand" instead of "Crocheted by
hand" (see below) in-case anyone else wanted to use them for their crafting.
We punched holes in the bottom left and strung yarn thru to tie to our hats. We will tuck them up inside the hats. You can fill in your name and contact information (we shared an email address on ours). They should fit perfectly on 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper or card stock.
If you are interested in the pattern for the hat, check out Mary's instructions at Joy With Purpose: Aunt Ida Hat Pattern. You can also find more patterns right here on Simply Shoeboxes: Free Crochet Patterns for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes.
