In the early summer I was looking for a bright but single colour hat for my little girl. I wanted it quite plain so it would go with most things. I couldnt find what I wanted so I made it instead. It started with a colour pallet , pink of course , im not allowed to get away with anything else...
Then once I got the ok from the little lady herself it turned into this......
She likes it, she wears it, I cant ask for more than that. It doesnt always go that smoothly , she has strong opinions on fashion already. I thought I would make a few more in different colours with a view to selling them. If you want to take a closer look then they are on sale and display at Little Roots in Hitchins Bridge street, nos 31. This is a really lovely hairdressers just for children where they get to sit in airoplanes and cars and watch dvds while having there haircut. Really great shop, great prices and lovely owners. Check it out if you havent already at www.littleroots.net .
If you fancy making one yourself let me know by email and I can send you a free downloadable pdf of the pattern and full sewing instructions. Not sure I will be able to work out how to link it to the blog. But I can also send it as a paper pattern in the post as long as you dont mind covering the print and postage fee. It would be great to see how other people embellish it. Just let me know what size you would like.... Happy stitching!
