My grandmother wanted a little hair net to cover her hair when she doesn't want it draping on her neck. She asked me to make her something and my designer brain went to work. This pattern calls for 100% cotton and offers a light weight hair accessory that is perfect for working in the garden or just enjoying a warm summer day.
I called it this pattern Flora because as I worked it up, the center of the work reminded me a lot of flowers... I know... I'm original. More specifically, it reminded me of my great-grandma's hydrangeas.
She loved her new accessory and hopefully you'll enjoy my new free crochet pattern 💚.
I personally had a cone of Lilly Sugar & Cream on my shelf but, you can make one of these with 1.5 of the smaller cakes of cotton.
