This light and lacy hat is inspired by the beautiful, yet fleeting blossoms that grace the trees each spring. The delicate lace repeat adds a touch of texture and femininity. The soft, airy nature of this hat is perfect for adding warmth to spring mornings.

The lace repeat worked along the length of the cap is simple and beautiful. It is perfect for beginners to lace knitting or those looking for a quick lace knitting fix. The hat is sized to have just a tiny bit of slouch when worn further back on the head.
