Can anyone please point me in the right direction for a link??, feeling more than a bit brain dead right now, so not sure I trust myself to come up with a pattern all by myself 
its for one of those furry 60s ish bonnet type hats, that come over the ears, & have cord with pompoms on the end - that all the teens are wearing right now
I've tried google, but realise it might help if I could remember what they are actually called 
I want to adapt it to make a monster one to add to DDs Xmas presents, & a good base block would be a big help right now
I also have a 4x fall/fold/loop
lined curtain swag to make to finish of my parents new curtains & tie backs & I've been putting off until my brain wakes up again, which just doesn't seem to be happening quick enough atm
(damn you fog brain 
so if anyone has a tutorial link for that too, it would be much appreciated
thanks :)
