I got a little bored working on an afghan over the weekend so I decided to crochet a new hat for Evie, my granddaughter who lives in England. I was inspired by a cap pattern in the July 1993 issue of Golden hands Monthly Magazine. I did a variation on the flowers but did use the basic hat pattern in the magazine article. The pattern size was for an average 4 year old.
Henry, my 4 year old grandson agreed to model the hat for the 2 pictures for this blog post. He is a real trooper but he did tell me that when I make him one, he wants it to be blue and that I cannot put flowers on it! He picked out the blue yarn from my yarn stash and I promised him there would be no flowers! The picures are below.
I put some light pink, purple and clear beads in the centers of all the flowers to add a little sparkle.
I am excited to take it to Evie when Jerry and I visit in April.
Happiness to everyone this week!
I love your flowers on it! Your grandson is a real trooper. I don't thing there is anyway I could convince my nephews to model a flowered hat for me. He is such a confident young man!
