A chic, fun, flat-topped hat that mixes tone-on-tone checkerboards and stripes (on the flat top) with beautiful tulips blowing in the breeze. Uses stranded knitting techniques, never more that 2 colors on a round. Can be lined with a fleece cap for extra warmth.

Pick any color for the tulips, be creative! Top it with a chunky tassel if you like.

Three sizes: Child, Adult, Large Adult. Designed for a Dutch friend for my Hats for Japan Red Cross Fundraiser, lots of folks have asked for the pattern so here it is.
