Default Long elf hats from afghan and skirt

I need help ASAP. I have a small afghan like 20" x 30" and want to make a long elf hat for my 26 yr old GD. She also wants one for her BBF which I got a long plaid skirt to make his. The off-white afghan is hand made in a cable stitch of some kind and I am not sure how to cut it, straight grain like or on the bias. She wants it to curl like.
The plaid skirt I want to add a black or wine double fleece or stretch some to set it off. I wanted to quilt the head bands a little to make it nice. But I am not sure how to cut it either. The plaid is printed on the bias. I am hoping I get the head band pieces tight enough for them to stay on their heads. I may have to use velcro. I will patiently wait for your replies!
