Materials:

5.0mm hook
Embroidery needle for weaving in ends and securing flower to hat
Spring Blossom flower applique pattern
Special Stitches:
mc- magic circle/ring (click HERE for written and video tutorial)
Notes:
I recommend using my seamless method. My seamless methods can be found here, follow the instructions for the second method in the hdc rows and when changing colors and use the first method for the sc rows.
You can do the hat, border and trim in any combination of colors that you like, the hat consists of 13 rows of hdc (totaling 45hdc at 5th row) followed by 5 rows of 45sc, one more row of 45hdc followed by one row of 90dc for brim and 1 row of 90sc for trim, brim is ended in one row of 90 sl st. Color changes can be made anywhere. I made one of the models using two colors for the border and one using only one color, along with using trim color on one and not on the other.
Gauge:
1st round= 1 ¼”
2nd round= 2 inches (each subsequent round = 1″)
Flat circle (at the end of round 5)= 5″
