finally finished bunnit
And I'm reasonably pleased with it! It's helped immensely by the delightful plaid ribbon, I think. ;)
There are a couple of things I would tweak about the shape - a slight reduction in width toward the bottom of the brim, and I'd take out the upward tilt of the crown, which didn't look quite so tilted when paired with the ginormous brim but is much more noticeable now! Those are really just notes for my future reference, though; I'm not displeased with them, per se! That's the thing about making hats...they're like corsets in that you can't really see if they're what you want til they're just about done. (Except corsets are way more work, which is why I'll never really get good at those. Anyway.)
It's quite a dark bonnet so these aren't great pics - since it rained basically all day and was generally dark and dismal! Oh well, I tried. (And the bonnet is on the head slightly crookedly! oops.)
