    If there ever was a hat we would wear every day of the winter, it would be this. It opens the door to a whole world of possible hats made from other enemies in the Super Mario franchise.

    Well, we can't say for certain that it won't take your head off but if our experience with this Headcrab plush hat is any indication, then this isn't a real Chain Chomp but instead just a clever approximation of one, designed to be worn on one's head. Our favorite part of this cap is that the appropriately named Knitting Ninja has posted a how-to so those of you always on the lookout for new and exciting things to knit – and, if you guys are anything like us, then you totally are – can lovingly craft your own out of nothing but yarn and free time.

    A hat like this might give Mario nightmares, but we're certainly fans. It's one of those ideas that seems so perfect, we're surprised we didn't think of it first. Made by the Knitting Ninja, this wonderful knit hat will make you look like a badass while keeping you warm. According to the Ninja herself, the hat is "a Chomp that has happily broken free of its chain, only to latch itself onto an unsuspecting gamer's head."If you'd like this chomp to rest on your head, fear not; the Knitting Ninja has plans to start selling them. You just have to watch her blog and hope you're able to snatch one up when they become available.[Via GoNintendo]
