A bluebell hat for my son’s friend. I wanted to make her a flowery hat, but all the free patterns were complicated (make all the petals separately!) or I didn’t like them. Then I remembered that feather-and-fan makes scallops, and I winged it! I half-remembered how the candle flames shawl starts and used that for leaves.

On the original pattern page, I messed up the charts. Since I cannot easily fix that right now, the last 3 pictures are charts 1, 2 and 3 respectively, as referenced on the page - the first is the start of the hat, the second the crown decreases, and the third pic is a leaf.
