I had a go at adding a flower to the child's sun-hat I made the other day, using a tradition Irish Rose pattern. I think the end result is very cute, if I do say so myself!
I wasn't sure how the colour changes would go, but it worked out fine. I changed colour after doing the back posts and chain foundations for the next row. I made a 6th petal, although the pattern I followed had 5, as I prefer it this way. A couple of buttons added to the centre provided just the right amount of embellishment. I'm glad a couple more of my homeless buttons have found a new home. This flower is not removable like my other flowers I make for hats, I just sewed it right on securing it tightly.I wonder if my 4 year old niece would like this hat? I don't know anyone else this would fit, and it would be a shame if no one wore it, it's just too nice!
