I picked up some Loops & Threads Charisma from Michael's today since it was on sale for $2. I've been wanting to make a new hat as a prop for holiday photos and I wanted to use my pom pom maker for it.... So I made this double pom pom hat.

Double Pom Pom Hat
Yarn: Super Bulky
Hook: 6.5mm/K
Size: Should fit an adult woman (obviously ;P) or a child 4+ (there's some stretch to it!). For adult men, I'd recommend a larger hook or adding 4-6 stitches to each row.

Rnd 1: 40 hdc around - 40 sts
Rnd 2 19 hdc, inc, rep - 42 sts
Rnd 3: 20 hdc, inc, rep - 44 sts
Rnds 4-16: hdc around - 44 sts
The pom poms were made with Clover's Large Pom Pom Maker using white Caron One Pound and the Red Charisma from the hat. I just put both strands from the prom pom and put them through the corners of the hat and tied them tightly.
I imagine that using worsted weight, a 5.5mm hook, and doing something like this would likely work as well:
