I pinned the pattern about a week ago and hit up the fabric store (girls trip) yesterday and bought a bunch of fabric that I had loosely planned for but it's all so fun and springy I thought "hey I should make that hat" so I started it last night and wouldn't you know we woke up to a blanket of snow :O just how my world turns....oh well the little lady is already planning on having one for every outfit for out beach trip in April :D these are addicting so unless you have the time don't even attempt! For your sewing pleasure I am linking the pattern I came across and the sew along I happened to find which is waaaayyyyyy easier then the way the book says it should be done( I am referring to this pattern also being in the
Oliver and S book)

I am a PERFECTIONIST so I pressed and pressed every seem and top stitched every inch of the hat possible. It does run a little small too! I made the large for my very averaged sized small headed three year(who are we kidding almost FOUR!) old I think it will last her a couple years though but totally wearable xoxo enjoy!

I wish I had read all the way through your post before making my own hats! The sizing definitely runs small. I had the same trouble with the medium hat not fitting a 3-year-old and the large not fitting a 5-year-old. They did turn out adorable, though!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up about sizes, Veronica. And thank you for this lovely hat pattern. I have just made my granddaughter a sundress and wanted a hat!
