Baby hat suggestions?

[girlpearl]

My nephew, who is, in my wholly objective and professional opinion, the cutest baby ever born on planet Earth, will be turning one very soon. My sister informs me that he would like a hat for his birthday, and my brother-in-law clarifies, "Preferably something with ears."

I've already knit him a variation on the Little Devil hat, designed (at my sister's request) to match the ear shape & color of her dog.

Does anybody know of any other baby hat patterns that have ears? No suggestion too goofy. They live in Chicago, so something nice & warm would be ideal.

I have an overwhelming love for Debbie Bliss' baby patterns. Seriously, I have a baby shower for one of my best girlfriends this month and all my major projects that I've knitted for her are from Debbie Bliss.

I have two of her books:
Simply Baby has a pixie hat. (Hat can be seen if you click "view more images".)
Essential Baby has a reversible hat.

They are both too cute for words. Neither have ears, though.

Thanks for the suggestions. Those are very cute, but they definitely want something with ears!

I had to take the opportunity to share my love of Debbie Bliss. Did I mention how much I love her? ;)

:) I don't think I've ever knit anything of hers before! Maybe I will give one of her patterns a try for Pregnant Coworker #4,379...

I did her cable baby socks for my first cabling project and fell in love with both cabling and her as it was my first Debbie Bliss pattern as well. I really have to resist buying another one of her books whenever I look at knitting stuff. I have plenty of baby pattern books. I am considering one of her adult pattern books though since I love her so very much.
