Bucket Hat

I love bucket hats for babies and kids. I am planning to make some for the market and have been playing around with a few designs. This one I made for Quinn was a bit of a disaster but looks cute in the end. I cut the top out too big, the band fitting around the head was three inches too small and a little too deep. Thankfully, I recycled a military style jacket and lots of seams make the hat look interesting as well as detracting from the botched design. I have since drawn up a new pattern to try again.
