Santa Hat Skin — Detailed Guide
A jolly look for any helmet
The Santa Hat is a headgear skin, named Santa Hat in ARK: Survival Ascended and Santa Hat Skin in ARK: Survival Evolved. Placed on any helmet or hat, it makes that piece look like a Santa Hat. The in-game description: "You can use this to skin the appearance of a helmet or hat. Provides a jolly look."
Earning it with an achievement
The ARK Wiki says the skin unlocks once the Expert Survivor Achievement is complete; after that, a copy is in the inventory each time the survivor respawns.
The Cooking Pot recipe
The wiki names the 
Cooking Pot as the crafting station and gives this recipe:
Fiber
Mistletoe
Pelt
HideA craft yields one hat and 12 crafting XP, and our ASE record lists 5 seconds of crafting time. The hat weighs 0 and has a stack size of 1. Our records also list it for Scorched Earth.
Before version 258.0
The wiki notes that, before 258.0 and the achievements as they work now, the hat could only be crafted while an event ran, either ARK: Winter Wonderland or ARK: Winter Wonderland 2, from the same ingredients in the same amounts. The first of those events had it in a 
Smithy, the second in a Cooking Pot. The version that added the hat is 228.0.
