“Poppins Hat” is bucket style hat with a lovely floral pattern. It is inspired by my “Ixora Bag” pattern. The hat features a simple base, a lacy floral design in the center, a brim and buttons.

I made this hat for my daughter, Shaman using two of my designer yarns, “Tricotin” & “Vibrant”. When Shaman saw the finished hat, she said, it looks like the candy, “Poppins”. So I named this hat after this colorful candy.

The pattern is fairly simple with mostly single crochet repeats. The stitch pattern is also easy and with repeats which I have explained with a photo tutorial and a video.
