Knit Baby Hat

I knit this hat for the daughter of a classmate of mine. I was worried because I was a little late on the draw for winter hats, but it snowed today, so I think I'm okay. The cords on the sides of the hat are meant to be tied to keep the hat on (not that it doesn't stay on by itself, just that little wriggly people tend to take hats off).

This is an original pattern. It is full of cables and pom poms! Acrylic Red Heart Soft yarn was used.
