R2D2 hat

Matthew received the Lego Star Wars Complete Saga game for Christmas this year, and Sebastian loves playing it.  (I wonder if it was really meant for Sebastian...).  Sebastian's favorite character is R2D2 and somehow we came across a knitted R2D2 hat.  I am terrible at knitting, but I have just started to learn how to crochet, so I searched for a crocheted version, and I found a pattern for free at Homespun Dreams. I made a few modifications since it was originally designed for a 10 year old boy and Sebastian is 4 1/2.

He is playing Lego Star Wars AND wearing his R2D2 hat!  My poor little man has a cold, so he isn't looking the best. :(

It was an easy pattern to follow, but I had problems sewing the parts on the hat.  That's a personal issue, not a problem of the pattern. Sebastian is now requesting an R2D2 amigurumi.  Time to get googling...
