Christmas knitting kits

Do you remember this picture...
I posted it saying that I was challenged to develop new patterns in hopes to make Christmas knitting kits. Well I have developed my first. I call it the "Kitty Cat hat".
Now I think you know why. It is worked using a technique I discovered: circular knitting on two straight needles.
A few other ideas for the hat:
add tassels to the ears,
add an I-cord closure to the neck.
What do you think? Please email leanne@oknitting.com with your thoughts/ suggestions. I'm interested.
