Sort-of Swimsuit with Hat



So readers, c'est moi!
OK, so I actually made the swimsuit thing (the pattern was a bit big for my doll hence it's kinda baggy and doesn't look as good as in the book) ages ago, but I finished the hat on holiday, with thanks to Julia and her handy sewing needle thing :) And so here is the finished shebang! I love how this hat actually starts off quite wide and then you decrease which gives it those nice almost-triangle shaped bits and I really like the bump that goes around the middle of the hat - I think it makes it look really interesting. Hats are really easy, so if you're looking for something to do as a first project that isn't a scarf (because they're a bit boring and take ages!) a hat would be a cool thing to do!
