Inspired by 1920s fashion, the Josephine hat boasts a wide brim that has a slight flair and a puff as it turns upward. This design element adds a jaunty sophistication to the Josephine. It can be worn straight or at an angle. An easy-to-knit lace stitch continues in the increase rounds and creates a hat that fits perfectly. Knit it in one color or two coordinating colors for extra pizazz.

The Josephine is a great stash buster.
