The “Sweet Shells” hat pattern came about when a friend asked me, “Can you make that?” I answered, “Yep!” And then I did. The result was better than I anticipated, so I wrote it out as quickly as I could.
I made sure to include measurements and instructions for all of the sizes: newborn through adult.

And take a look at the shell pattern. I’ve been admiring it a tad compulsively- I love the shells, but I also love the diagonal lines running through (did you notice those?) and I love the floweryness of it and the way it scallops on at the bottom. Oh, and speaking of flowers, I’ve included the how-to for the Rose. The perfect hat needs the perfect touch.
