My mother knitted these flowery hats for the girls.
Although they appear complicated, they are actually basic hats adorned with knitted flowers. The flowers were created by knitting small rectangles and then rolling them into a coil. The leaves are slightly tapered rectangles.
Since this hat had so many strings coming inside when tying the flowers on, a small circle was knitted inside the hat to cover them. I love the way embellishing basic hats and other items can completely change the look.
What have you embellished? Do you have a favorite knit flower book or embellishing book? If you do please leave me a comment.
