As I mentioned in my previous post, I have been working on the pattern for a bucket hat. This is my striped bucket hat embellished with flowers. The pattern is available in my Ravelry store.

This beautiful bucket hat is made using 2 colours in sport weight cotton yarn . The yarn I used is Katia Menfis cotton yarn. This comes in 100g balls, and you will need 1 ball in each colour.

The hat will fit an adult. It is made in one piece, but has 3 distinct sections:

• the top part, measuring approximately around 6.5 inches,
• a middle section measuring 3.5 inches in height and
• the rim, which is 1.5inches.

For the flowers, you can choose to make these in any other complementary colours, or stick with the 2 main colours of the hat. 

Here are a couple of colour variations which I have made. Also, as the flowers are crocheted separately, you can decide to leave them out.
