Flapper hat, and yet, not
Does anyone think this hat is sufficiently 1920s enough to work as a garden hat? Here it is on Ravelry.
It is kind of cloche-like, but it is a modern pattern and it's crocheted. Has anyone run across any crocheted cloches from the 1920s?
I'd probably end up using mercerized cotton for it, since that's easily accessible around here and I like the shine. The Drops Paris that is suggested is cotton and is listed as aran weight on Ravelry, but the hook size is only 3.5 mm/size E, which is a little small for aran. The Garnstudio site says it's worsted, and that sounds better.
