The Best of Both Worlds
I just finished crocheting a hat that I am extremely pleased with, because it looks good and is comfy, too~the best of both worlds. The pattern is from a collection called Classic Crochet Cloches, designed by yarn-savvy Jennifer Hansen of Stitch Diva Studios.
I used a plain, purple acrylic yarn but, buoyed by my success, I now intend to ply my hook using silk, linen, or a summer cotton in a quietly elegant eggshell with a pale lilac flower.
My friend, Wendi, was kind enough to model the cloche for me.

She looks quite smashing in it, don’t you agree?
