I found this awesome little project over at Delia Creates while I was searching for some 'boy' projects in a cyber world full of tutorials for girls. This one is GOLD and literally takes 5 minutes - if you have a boy you must give this a go! I started with this (rather bright) red beanie I found at an op shop for a whopping 50c and cut a brim out of an old ice cream container which is perfect for this project as it's flexible but still holds its shape, and best of all can be thrown in the washing machine.
Said ice cream container brim
Oh, and round off the sharp edges of the brim a little or it may poke through your beanie.

So in the five minutes between Banana's In Pyjama's and dinner time, we have a brand new winter hat! Ollie insisted on wearing it for dinner and even suggested he could wear it in the bath...um, no. But nice try little guy.
Happy days!
