This hat was made with Berroco Faux Suede and Berroco Plush yarn (one skein each). The pattern is available for free on DIY Network http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/faux_suede_baby_hat/edit. I used the suggested needle size, 6s I think. It was really quick to make and I can't wait to see it on my cousin's new baby.
