Lobelia Sackville-Baggins is not a hobbit to be messed with. Although Bilbo and Frodo aren’t on the best of terms with this no-nonsense relation, one thing they can’t deny about her is that she has class. Just like it’s namesake, this hat gets the job done and does it with style. The simple, stockinette folded brim gives way to an easy-to-memorize lace pattern that is beautiful without being too open. The invisible crown decreases make for a picture perfect top that only adds to the classiness. Wear this out, and you’ll be ready to handle anything.
