One of my favorite picture books is "Shall I knit you a hat: a Christmas yarn" by Kate Klise. To summarize:
When Mother Rabbit knits a warm winter hat for Little Rabbit, he likes it so much that he suggests they make hats for all of their friends as Christmas gifts.
At the end of the book, there's a pattern for making Little Rabbit's hat. I couldn't resist the temptation! You can read more about that book HERE.
I thought Little Rabbit's paws might get a wee bit cold too, so I whipped up a pair of the Angelina Cable Mitts in the same yarn (Cascade 220 Quatro), and stuck them in his boot for St. Nick's Day. We have been getting a lot of use out of them this past week and they stay on his hands way better than the mittens I made for him last year.
The result: One cute and toasty warm Little Rabbit :)

Cute, cute, cute. You have me busy trying to think of a little one to be a recipient of that book and the hat. I loved reading the Jan Brett books to my children so much, mainly because of the beautiful knitting that she draws.
