POMPOM:
With white.
In a mr repeat (2 ch, 1 sl st) x5
Pull the ring closed, break yarn.
We'll have this little flower looking thing, so to make it look more like a pompom we'll bunch it up and sew it, making the outsides go upwards instead of flat. Sew the pompom to the start of the hat.
You can leave the hat as it is or if you want you can fold the top and sew a few stitches to get the droopy look.
Now, sew the hat to the head between the eyes, and slightly towards the back.
