Pattern modifications. Ended up going with the toddler size. Even though the measurements on the pattern are a tad small for a toddler, it ended up working out just fine. I did however do the child size ear flaps (14 stitches instead of 12) and then cast on for the toddler size. Worked 4 rows of garter stiich to get a nice brim. I also knit up two extra ear flap pieces. When I was finished with the hat I came back and added these to the ear flaps already conected to the hat. I attached them by doing a single crochet edge which I continued around the entire brim of the hat. Without the double layer ear flaps, the single curl in, which I did not like. Plus, I think the crochet edge gives the hat a nice finished look.
