A hat is a hat is a hat

Well, just look at that,
a hat, hat, hat, hat.
Al's presents to cousins
just need to be wrapped.
She knit without whining,
she knit wihtout woes,
She started this summer and lo and behold,
her hats aren't mishaped,
they aren't to tight,
in fact they have turned out precisely just right.
Perhaps I can knit a hat,
worthy of giving,
I've got one day off, I won't work for my living,
if I knit up with fat wool
and sit for a day,
maybe, just maybe I'll knit it okay.
Maybe the socks weren't right for the gift,
maybe a hat will give me a lift.
A hat is so useful so essential so warm
Cara will need in every snow storm.
So I'll look for the pattern that will be just right,
and I'll knit and i'll knit way through this cold night.
