Festive Striped Beanie with Flower

As a first post, how about my first pattern writing experience?  Zoe (14 months) has been wearing a pumpkin hat all fall and Amelia (5) has declared that it's time Zoe got a new hat. . . so this is what I came up with.  It's a little tight but maybe it will stretch out once she's worn it for a while.  

Materials:
Worsted weight yarn in cranberry and white.

H hook

Tapestry needle
