This hat is a tribute to the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett’s last book, The Shepherd’s Crown. A Shepherd’s Crown is a real thing, a type of fossil(sea urchin). So the hat picks out the shape of a shepherd’s crown on top while around the brim is a little pattern of peaks like a coronet.

I originally made this design for a friend who had become ambassador for a Dementia Awareness campaign. They had a stylised(modern looking) angel as their logo and I couldnt find a pattern that fitted my vision. So I made one!
