My grandma made one for all of her grandkids. I was the last grand kid. Mine was more generic than my sister's. Her's had red pompoms that mine did not. Sniff. She also made us those dolls that were two in one. You would flip the skit over and it had a head at the other end. Ours were very un-p.c. A "mammy" on one end and a little girl on the other end. (Mine had blonc hair for me and my sister's had brown hair for her.)

I would like to trade crochet hats for rooted Episcias, Streptocarpus, Kohleria, Achimenes, Gloxenia. I make all sorts of hats like sock monkey, frog, owl, ladybug, tiger. Also newsboy, beanies, just about any style you want. I have a facebook page Grandma Kathie's Crochet Cuties that shows many of the hats I make. The URL is http//www.facebook.com/gkcrochetcuties . Please let me know if you would like to trade.

Pat - If you're adventurous, take a look at the site below. It tells how to make a fez for a man, but the instructions tell how to make it for any size. Good luck! Here is a link that might be useful: Fez Pattern and Instructions
