After I knit the Sunflower Dreams Shawl, I couldn’t get the idea of a matching hat out of my head. The yarn had been so incredible to work with, the stitch pattern so simple but effective. And I love the chance to have a matching set when stepping out in colder weather. I’ve provided two brim options: a traditional ribbed brim, and a folded double-thick brim.
