As a stylish addition add this gorgeous cotton floppy sun hat to your summer wardrobe.
They always say when the sun is out to wear a hat, so crochet up this one and off you go. It is a quick and easy pattern to make, made using just two crochet stitches.
Made in soft cotton yarn it is light to wear. I’ve adorned with my pretty folded petal flower appliqué, but you can add something of your own or just leave plain.
