This hat is a lacy little number that is knit from the bottom up in the round. Offered in three sizes, there is surely one in there for you. The lace patterns used may look complicated, but are really quite simple. Even as a lace beginner, you might fall into the simple rhythm of it.

The instructions are charted as well as fully written out, so you can choose what you prefer.
