Venetian Cup
A quick, delicate hat in beautiful lace - because if you still have to deal with the snow and cold, you should have something new and springy to remind you that warm weather is just around the corner.
Right?
Venetian Cup features a dense garter, cable, and lace pattern with lovely lines and twisted cables. The hat is begun with a simple brim and finished off with a star design on the crown, and will feel fresh and new with your heavy coat this week, but will work equally well with a denim or lightweight jacket when the temps start to turn.
