It’s so fascinating to assemble my weekly picks every Friday and see what trends intersect – seeing them in collage like this often reveals trends I hadn’t even realized I kept seeing.
The Delta Hat is here, let’s celebrate with a knit along!
The Delta Hat is an asymmetrical hat with a garter stitch flap that can be left down for added coverage or buttoned up for a cute, cloche look. The side of the hat opposite the flap features a triangle motif reminiscent of art deco architecture, and the off-center decreases help this hat lie naturally at a jaunty angle.

Picks of the Week
I love the color palette formed by this week’s picks collage! The mints and the pinks and the greys and the creams – the brights juxtaposed with the subtler tones make such a good combo.
