Anthro-Inspired Hat
http://idesignadventures.blogspot.com/2011/11/anthro-inspired-hat.html
This is my third attempt to post this properly….
I made this hat for a baby shower that we recently held at church. I made three hats, but this was the show-stopper. I used baby weight yarn. I made the body white, I used a different flower pattern and made it in lilac, but then I sewed a button in the center of my simple, one-layer flower. It was a glass button that shimmered with green, pink and blue tones. I wish I was smart enough to take a picture of the hats I made. I told you, I’m new at this!
The crocheter’s blog site is pasted next to the picture. She saw this hat in an Anthropologie store and said it retailed around $50! Since I stopped shopping at malls after the birth of my first child – I had four more after him – I buy my yarn at Wal-Mart and try to make snazzy things that look expensive!
I hope you try it. It’s beautiful when done.
