The best part is that I had the exact colors of yarn in my yarn stash. I used a free pattern for a basic crocheted ear flap hat in the size that I needed from Ravelry (which was much bigger than the inspiration hat that is an infant size). I changed colors in approximately the same place as the inspiration hat and I made up and crocheted the embellishments. I think it turned out great!
And just as I did with her brother's hat, I embroidered a name tag on the inside.
I made it a touch too big so that she had some room to grow.
And here she is modeling her new hat with her "Diva" pose :-)
Still more Christmas gifts coming... plus this is the BEST time of the year to score some major deals on clothing, so I will also be sharing my bargain hunting soon :-)
