Premmie stuff

Does anyone know where I could find patterns for baby preemie hats?
My little sister had her baby this weekend at 26 wks gestation. Hes 2lbs 5 oz and soooo long! He's past the 24 hour mark so things are looking up... he stable and they think that he will be all right! So I would like to make the little man a hat to help keep him warm while he is in the NICU. Any suggestions?

There is an adorable Preemie hat pattern that I've done (it's a spiral rib knit). Here's the link:

I hope everything works out.

Thanks for the links ladies :)

I just got a call from my dad I guess the little guy wasn't as advanced as the doctors thought last night so he had a rough night. They did something (don't know what because my dad had no clue) but it caused him to bleed internally a little all I know is that it has to do with his breathing. Dad said that the little guy is going to be allright they got his bleeding to stop. Poor kid has a long way to go.
