There is something spectacular about Bells of Ireland. They are tall, stately flowers with lovely cupped petals. They have multiple flowers that flow from base to tip. Known as a “lucky” flower, I decided that they were a wonderful inspiration for a hat. Hopefully you to will enjoy the stately cables and lace columns of this lightweight hat inspired by Bells of Ireland.

This pattern is meant for adventurous novice knitters to experienced knitters and all those in-between.
