Crochet Hat and Bow

I made up this crocheted hat a little while back. Right after Christmas last year-I decided I'd just keep making things as potential gifts, and now I have a little collection going. 



This morning my Mom needed a gift for someone so she asked if I had any hats ready to go....
 
It didn't have the little polka dot bows 'til today...
I just brought out my scrap basket, cut 2 rectangles from 1 pre-cut length, pinked around all edges, cut that in half down the middle, and tied them to the hat in bows.

This is a quick hat to make-great for gifts. I think the pattern is from this book, but it's been awhile so I'm not sure. You can find similar patterns around the web...
I priced some knit hats at one of my 'favorite stores' recently and they were (very cute) but quite a bit of $ and not handmade which is half the fun, right? ;)
