summer hat hair clip

I crocheted this miniature summer hat (2" diameter) and attached a snap clip on the back. It would be nice to wear it for a day out on sunny summer day. ^ - ^

I don't remember the pattern exactly but the key is that you need to crochet in each back loop of stitch to look like vintage straw hat.

crocheted flower hair clip

This is one of my series of flower hair clips inspired by the flower button.

At first, I crochected two different size and color of petals using 100% cotton yarn and sewed together. I like both pink and yellow colors and they look pretty on white plastic coated snap clips. Also, I love the flower button glued on the top.

I guess I will make more using different color. : ) {amigurumis}
