I posted a spanish site w. pretty stitches a couple of days ago ,(sorry, don't remember which thread) that one gives you both the charts and the verbal explanation, you may find it helpful.

A pattern in my language! SWEET! I think everyone's got you covered.

[RebeccaVelasquez]

got it all figured out?

looks like tiggzie is the one to call on.

(if she's not around, i'm here.... i speak/read spanish)

[woolandflax]

Well i ran it through the babel fish thingy but there is still some stuff on there I don't understand. If Tiggzie or Rebecca wouldn't mind translating it I would be so excited!!!!

want me to try it? i speak spanish...

[cajunwhacko]

here you go, I hope this helps! The instructions aren't terribly clear...

 

100 grams cotton thread, steel hook size number 000

 

 

Stitches:

 

Starting stitch, ss, hdc, dc, fantasy stitch (see ill.), end stitch (see ill.)

 

 

Instructions:

 

Ch 5, join with a ss to form a round. Dc 12 in the ring formed. Continue rounds in dc, but with even increases to form a flat surface. At 13 cm diameter begin to use fantasy stitch, without increases. After 11 cm of fantasy stitch, switch to hdc for 2 rounds, using increases to form the brim of the hat. To end do 5 cm in end stitch and finish with one round in hdc using pink.

 

 

Finishing:

 

Using pink thread, make a band of 3 dc that will go around the hat. Add to the hat as shown in the photo. Decorate with artificial flowers.

THANKS!! You're right though, it's not real clear. I didn't realize it was a thread pattern. Hmmm.....

[cajunwhacko]

Since it isn't so clear, maybe you could adjust it for yarn fairly easily... I was really surprised how unclear it was though. If you work it out, I want to see a pic!

[woolandflax]

Sure!! I've really been wanting a lacy widebrimmed hat that didn't look like it belonged on a grandma.(no offense to all the grandmas' here!!) I just want something feminine and maybe a bit vintagey to keep the sun off my face.

[cajunwhacko]

I just now went back to look for a picture of it... lol

 

That is a really cute hat! And definitely not granny-like.

 

I bookmarked the site, they have some cute stuff!
