Does anyone have a pattern for knitting newborn (possibly larger side of preemie size) caps for babies?

I don't even know if you are supposed to have these to go home or not.

So, for those that have been before me, please indulge me and if you do have a knitting pattern, please know, I'm a fairly new knitter. Can do Knit and Purl stitch but I have to think REALLY hard if I have to count patterns :blush

Thanks!

I made this one:
http://knitting.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.vintageknits.com/babyhat.html

The hearts are a lot easier than you think they're going to be, but you could easily leave them out. Oh- the instructions for newborn/preemie sizes are at the bottom of the pattern.
OH- and this was my second project, and I still can't do much more than knit or purl. It really is simple.

You can find a whole bunch of patterns at http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com/directory.php

Click the Baby option, which will also give you a link for preemie patterns. I have as much fun deciding on a pattern as I do knitting it. ;)
