This is a fun hat with a non-traditional brim. Knit from the bottom up, it has a simple open lace pattern that is easy to memorize and great for cool spring weather. This loose fitting hat won’t squish your curls (or your little one’s). The crown decreases at five points creating a nifty little pentagon.
