I would do the same thing, I'd slip stitch the heart applique directly on to the beanie. I prefer that look. I would also cut my yarn and reattach at the bottom band so that I could have a solid color instead of that mix of colors. I think it provides a cleaner finished look to the beanie. That is what is great about variegated yarns!

Five of my seven children are girls, and they were all crazy about the Rainbow Brite franchise. Fortunately, there were enough different characters that each daughter had a specific doll she favored. This project has inspired me to track down this and other matching yarn for next years Christmas hats. Ill even include a print of that Christmas Past when they all got their dolls!
