Things I Made Before Christmas #3

I made my niece Maddie a purple hat! I only took this one picture of it. You can't see that there is a  pom pom on the top. I would say that my favorite part is the pom pom, but really it's the sweet girl wearing the hat. When she opened it, she put the hat right on. :)

I combined two patterns to make this hat. For the button band I sort of used this pattern. For the rest of the hat I sort of used this pattern.

Maddie actually asked for a purple sweater and I didn't have time to make her one. I'm thinking that will be my next knitting project. Her birthday is coming up, after all!
