Inspired by Sunflower fields in Tuscany, subtle Cypress Pine trees emerge from an irregular rib stitch which forms tree trunks in the band of the Sunflower Head Beanie. The trees are then created using an interlocking lace leaf stitch. The crown of the hat is a pretty sunflower created by the leaf stitch forming ten petals.
