Hat Head Ahead

I decided to make my darling son a hat for Christmas... after much frantic googling, I settled on either the JCrew Hat or the NY Mets Hat. This, by the by, was my first attempt at a hat.
Luckily I cast on while at SnB, so I had mucho help to keep me from completely screwing it up. Only got about two rows knit because I had to keep recasting on (doing the long-tail cast on without a long enough tail), and then had to purchase new needles from the darling Suzoo. Lesson to self: you cannot knit something meant for 12" circs on 24" circs.... very, very bad.
I also have the half down first booties of my second set of Baby Uggs, but seeing how my darling Cynderelly is not due for MONTHS, that can wait.
