This is a pretty sunhat. Ideal for looking stylish but protected from the sun.

The DK weight cotton yarn is knitted flat, bottom up, with two strands together so the brim has firm body and will not flop or sag.

The shaped brim narrows at the nape of the neck.

Can be made/worn with either brim down to shade, or brim up, with a decorative bow.

Both chart and text for the simple lace pattern.

For those of you who sell for profit, particularly those of you who knit tirelessly for good causes, please feel free to post, pin, upload, sell for profit, the finished product with my blessings.
