There is hardly a more fabulous accessory than a vintage style hat.
Nothing transforms an outfit like a great hat can. I think they're such fun pieces which is probably why I can't seem to stop making them. This pillbox hat is not full size, so it's more a type of cocktail hat that sits tilted on the head.
From understated to extravagantly embellished, the decorations can endlessly vary the look. Make two from one skein and adorn completely differently!
The pillbox shape for hats has been around literally thousands of years but was more recently made popular in the mid-20th century. This classic shape is easy to wear and won't mess up your hair.
