how cute! my son loved the movie the nightmare before christmas and how appropiate for you to share this on its 20th aniversary

told my son was a fan of the movie it came out 14 days before his first birthday my ex bought the movie when he was like 2 and they watched it none stop I had to buy a replacement movie when he was 3

btw he will debate me on the release date he says it was released on his 1st birthday the 29th of oct

If you are going to make a larger size of beanie, I would say find a regular hdc beanie and work it with one extra increase round, work down to desired length then do a round of decrease like your last round of increases, then work the reverse sc round.. that'll give the hat more of a round shape then the usual straight down cut. Also you could work the eyes in the pattern but use a larger hook size like an H8 or I9 to get a larger sized eye.
