This is a fun, quick, and enough details to keep it interesting, knit. This little hat is perfect for most kids ages 18 months to 4 years (with detailed instructions, including an additional chart and written instructions, on how to increase the size to fit a preschooler/early elementary kid). It is knit in the round using fair isle technique to create the row of pumpkins. Both charted and written instructions are provided. It is topped off with a cute little icord that my son insists should be green, so you may want to make that change!
