It has been a good couple of weeks. I finished my Leadlight Afghan which took forever and the Frankie Drake Cloche has made its way through the testing process.
This is a fun hat and if you love the fashion from the 1920's and want to be just like Frankie Drake, then this will appeal for sure!
I have been binge watching Frankie Drake Mysteries Tv Series of late and just loving the 1920’s Fashion, especially the Cloche Hats. I found myself reaching for my hook. So, this is inspired by all the hats on the series. I would like to think that Frankie would be pretty happy with the results!
The pattern is now available on Ravelry.
Materials:
I used 2 balls of Lincraft Balmy which is approx to an Aran yarn. I have done a gauge swatch to help with yarn choice.
I also used a small amount of Patons Cotton Blend dk double stranded for the embellishments.
