The second Holly Hat from Winter Warmers book.
Ones again I used Rowan Drift yarn. The last ball of it was waiting for me in Attica-yarn store :) Shame it is discontinued now because I fell in love with it. All calculations are identical to my previous Holly hat.

My sister had insisted on having a flower on the hat, so I made one. This flower is a brooch from the same Winter Warmers book. I used 3,25 mm needles and split the original thick Drift yarn thread so the flower comes out refined. I also felted it lightly by washing it in turns in soapy hot and cold water. The Swarovski pearls were sewn after the flower was completely dry.
