Like big dabs of thick paint, coloured bobbles are used to paint a pretty crown of flowers around your head!

The pattern includes a slightly modified bobble technique to ensure a clean transition between the bobble and background colours. When the bobble colour is not in use, it is stranded just as colours not in use are stranded when doing other forms of colourwork.

Sizes:
Toddler - fits a 17 ½ – 19 inch (44 - 48 cm) head
Child / Small Adult - fits a 19 ½ – 21 inch (49 - 53 cm) head
Adult - fits a 21 ½ – 23 inch (54 - 58 cm) head

Yarn requirements (MC / CC1 / CC2):
Toddler - 120 / 20 / 5 yards
Child / Small Adult - 132 / 20 / 5 yards
Adult - 145 / 15 / 5 yards

Blue hat shown in Quince and Co. Lark
MC = ‘River’ (107); CC1 = ‘Rosa Rugosa’ (134); CC2 = ‘Honey’ (123)

Black hat shown in Quince and Co. Lark
MC = ‘Crow’ (102); CC1 = ‘Egret’ (101); CC2 = ‘Rosa Rugosa’ (134)

Note - I used just a few metres / yards more than one skein of Lark for the main colour (MC) for the Adult size. You could probably get away with one skein if you made the hat just a little bit shorter.
