Turning into a Mad Hatter

In the last few months of 2011 I really did get a little hat crazy. I'm slowly posting all of them one by one on Ravelry as I get the chance. I had forgotten just how much I liked wearing hats. Now, you're hard pressed you find me without one.

Here are a couple more that I knit during October and November. Note that Winston is involved in the pictures. He just had a haircut. Usually he looks like a big ole' puffball, but he had gotten a little matted and had to go for the Jason Statham haircut on his body. He thinks he's pretty hot stuff now and struts around the house quite proud of himself. As I was taking pictures of the hats he managed to snag the Brambles Beret for a closer inspection, I managed to blind him with the flash while Declan stole the hat before someone lost a finger or the hat lost some stitches. He really needs to learn to look with his eyes and not his teeth, but I guess I should be glad that he has an appreciation for the knitted arts.

Any good hat pattern suggestions? I'm due for a new hat.
