Simple lace pattern knit on larger needles than the dk-weight yarn requires for a lacy, open look. Usually just one 50g ball of dk weight yarn is all it takes!

Block it firmly to give it a nice shape and show off the eyelets… I blocked mine on a soccer ball. Worked like a charm.

I can’t say it enough- this hat’s shape is greatly improved by blocking. Blocking is your friend! :)
