Anybody know what these crocheted things are?

[Jean Marie]

If you look at the second picture on page 1; Can anyone tell me what the short things between the ears are called? I'm crocheting reindeer hats. I have one hat done. I'm working on the second hat. I have one of those short crocheted things that's between the ears in the picture that I crocheted. I want/need to crochet a few more but I don't have the pattern book with me. Maybe I can figure it out by looking at the other one but I thought I'd look for a pattern but I don't know what they're called.

Reindeer hat for my Dad

ps I didn't crochet earflaps this time. The pattern for the reindeer hat is in a Loops and Threads Ho Ho Celebrations but I don't have the book with me so I don't know what the things that's between the ears are called. I want to crochet a few more.
