My yarn, Deborah Norville's Premier Everyday Soft Worsted in Really Red, deserved to have the perfect pattern for this perfect little hat I had in mind. I couldn't find just the right pattern so I invented one - not saying it's perfect though! Not by any means, but it's closer than anything I found that was to my preferences while pattern browsing. Anyway, I thought I would share the pattern with you just in case you had a ball of Premier yarn left over and was wondering what the heck to do with it.
( I have an old photo of me wearing one of those little hats I speak of but can't find it anywhere. Dang. When I do though, I'll post it here so you can see just what I mean.)

Thank you June (wow - that's my Mom's and my birth-mom's name! It also happens to be my middle name and my daughter's middle name! lol) Anyway, I still have my old straw type hat you referred to, I have a photo of me wearing it somewhere all dressed up for church in a dress my mother made. It's what inspired this hat pattern. I hope you have a blessed Easter as well! Thank you for your comments.
