My daughter came to me one day and very specifically asked for a hat in pink, yellow and white with flowers on. Anyway, the weather turned cold so I quickly sketched a design for her and knitted it over autumn half-term out of yarn from my stash. She is very proud of her beanie and so we thought we’d share it with you. We hope you enjoy making it and look forward to seeing your creations x
