Floral Arrangement Hat
Instructions are a combination of written instructions with charts for motif.
This hat is a companion to the Floral Arrangement Cowl. It uses an all-over floral design to make an eye-catching bouquet worth wearing. Bright colors are shown, but color changes everything. A switch to muted colors will give a very different look. Instructions included to make a shorter Beanie or a taller Slouch Hat (shown). Top with a giant pom pom or tassel or leave it plain. Keep it, then make another to gift and share a floral bouquet with a friend.
The pattern comes in two sizes, Child/Small Adult & Regular Adult.
Materials:
Worsted Weight Wool
If desired, a self-striping worsted yarn works great as a substitute for single color CC. It adds a nice “color change” effect. The Knit Picks Chroma colorways are great for this. About 20% less yarn of Main Color is needed for the Beanie.
