This was a quick-ish project finished just before we went away and modelled “in action”. 
I wanted another sun hat for Rose alongside the Miss Dashwood I made last year, because one hat is obviously never enough!
The style is similar to Miss D, but with a lacy brim. It was a really nice pattern to knit. I followed it as written, but decreased down to three stitches at the top of the crown and then worked i-cord for a couple of inches to make a wee stem so that it looks a bit like the hat that Victoria Plum wore (showing my age with an obscure 1980s reference!).
The yarn has been in my stash for yonks. I bought twelve balls of it for a cotton cardigan that never materialised. It’s nice to knit with: pretty soft and a cost-effective sub for pricier worsted-weight cottons. Not sure why I thought I would ever wear an entire garment in such a cheery green, though, but it might do for something for Rose instead. Although she is already beginning to express a preference for red. The purple brainwashing clearly needs to be stepped up a notch. 
What a cute hat on a cute girl!
