Golden Compass Hats

I was watching a movie a few nights ago called 'The Golden Compass' which I thoroughly enjoyed (I'm a real kid at heart). The hat worn by the little girl in the north really caught my eye. It looked so warm and snuggly. I decided to try my hand at knitting one. It took a bit of fiddling to finally get it right . Using various types of wool, I managed to get a variegated effect which is also really thick and warm. I ended up making two of them in different sizes as the first was a little small. They turned out good if I don't say so myself. I really like them ... maybe I'll make some more in different colours. You certainly can't get a warmer hat than this for your little girl.
