At last week’s used book sale, I picked up this little dandy for $2. I’ve always liked the idea of a bouquet of knit flowers. I won’t ever do it, but it’s a nice idea!
No, what I’m envisioning is a hat, something fit for Carmen Miranda or Esther Williams. So far, I’ve got a daffodil, a hibiscus and a peace lily.
I think maybe a water lily or a poppy next! The order doesn’t really matter though. I think this headwear masterpiece needs one of each! Oh yes!
And somehow, it’s always the most ridiculous ideas I follow through on so this should be good :)
How beautiful!!! A flower hat :)

The most ridiculous ideas are always the most fun! I know I’d be giggling through making a hat like that – silly projects are the best. Plus, if you need an excuse to wear it, Halloween is right around the corner!

I don’t buy many books, storage is an issue in my tiny apt and who knits all the patterns in a book, ever? No me. Until now! I think I will! They’re really fun to make and perfect for using up little scraps!

that sounds like loads of fun to wear! And I can think of many hat patterns that NEED a flower over the ear…. do show us the poppy, I love them, and I bet a knitted one is gorgeous. Then I will be bothering you to tell me how to find the pattern of course. :-)

It’s my favorite so far! And it turns out there are used copies of this book on amazon for 28 cents. LOL. That shouldn’t break the bank!
