The Way You Wear Your Hat

Having taken a little too much sun on Saturday, I thought that a hat would be in order. What better hat than a Bottoms-Up Hat?

I did this one in some stash Rowan Handknit DK Cotton in cream. Scrumptious to knit with, I'm very pleased with this. I'm slightly tempted to add a few little knitted flowers using the greens from my Flighty (no, I haven't forgotten about it!). I do like the unsullied cream though - it's very pleasing in a minimalist way.

I do love the clean look of the hat, but some additional flowers would be nice too. Or you could always do another bucket hat with flowers, lol. I have some extra handknit dk. Don't know why I can't get started on that hat. Its a really quick project. Everyone seems to be just knocking them out. Your hat is so cute and perfect for the present weahter maybe I should just cast on and knit a few rows on it to get the ball rolling.

Your bucket looks much more shaped than mine ? Is it the yarn ? Or is the buckety-shaped thing you have inside your bucket ?? Minimalism is so stylish but I can never resist a bit of glam !
