Cut off a long length of tail for attaching to face. Sew in hat.

Update:

Made another for a baby shower matched with a pink hat for the big sister, too!

This pink hat was made for a 2-y.o. toddler and so I made the hat about 3 inches smaller in circumference. In hat pattern, round 5 onwards is just 52 stitches.

This blue one is for the baby expected to arrive in a month. The hat stops increasing after 32 stitches and instead of 14 rows, it was just 11. Just an estimate - I have to see the kids wear it to verify the measurements.

Crocheted Flower Pattern (link)

Using a size H hook, chain 4. Join the end to the first chain with a slip stitch to form a ring.

R1: (single crochet in the ring, chain 3) 6 times. Again, join the last stitch to the first single crochet with a slip stitch.

R2: (single crochet, chain 1, 3 double crochets, chain 1, single crochet) in each space created by the chain 3.

R3: Now you begin working in the back of the flower you have started creating. (single crochet around the first spoke, then chain 4) 6 times. Join last stitch to first stitch with a slip stitch.

R4: (single crochet, chain 1, 5 double crochets, chain 1, single crochet) in each space created by the chain 4.

R5: Repeat round 3, but chain 5 instead of 4. Join last stitch to first with a slip stitch and weave in ends.

If you want to add another layer of petals, repeat Round 3, increasing the number of stitches in the chain by one, and Round 4, increasing the double crochets by two.
Earflap braided tails:

I used four strands of each color to attach tie strings on to the earflaps and braided them, then trimmed the ends.
