This pattern is easy to follow, fun to change and adapt. I was delighted with the professional look of the final product. Since my wool is thicker than what is used in the pattern, I used an N- 9 mm hook and by using thick yarn, I only needed only 6 rows to fit a two-year-old. Bonus- the hat is so comfortable. Although I adapted the pattern. I followed the basic concept in the link below.

Love the big eyes! My son’s got a hat like this (which I have to find cuz I think he left it again in school)! Thats his fave and its a bit old now and yet he still wear it =)
I hope these hats are just as well loved as your sons

I was surprised by how well they turned out
I really wish I can knit as I have this big head and I cant find a hat that fits well. Everything is so small =(
