Lady Lila

So I was at home for the last month and I was never actually at home since I had sooo much to do! However, I put in some serious time in airports and on the way home I developed a little pattern for the hat in Twilight.  I have never written a pattern before, but this is what I came up with.

Bella’s Hat

Materials:

Caron Simply soft (uses about half a skein)

G hook

 

Side Notes:

I love the hat the first time I went to the movie and I wanted to make it. When I went to see it the second time I looked as close as I could and saw that there were 6 vertical bars and 3 horizontal. Unlike the one in the movie this one does not have a pointy top, mine worked out to have a flattish top instead and, while it isn’t quite like the one in the movie, I actually like it better J
