Last night I put the finishing touches on my Southern and Sassy Hat by Elk Studio Handcrafted Crochet Designs! I was so excited for this pattern by my friend Kathy, I couldn’t wait to try it out!!! It is easy to follow and worked up so quickly! When I finished last night I showed it to my lovely 17-year-old daughter… She tried it on and loved it too!!! You can get her pattern for this great hat at her Etsy Shop if you want to give it a try! You won’t be disappointed…
