I know summer just started, but I had to share this Mashup Bonnet. Many thanks to Of Mars for helping me work through a measurement hiccup. As a crafter who loves to make hats, I’m always working on winter in between some of the fun summer stuff. I’m already thinking of yarns and colorways for this beautiful split brim. And the texture 🤩 The background is AI but the work is all mine. Handmade, removable pompom of course.
