Decorations for little girl's ball cap and bucket hat

[MercyPres]

Motifs in Lizbeth Denim Whisper Dusty Rose Lt size 20 for little girl ball cap and bucket hat. Dimpled hearts are made with stitch count from Birgit Phelps Simple Angel only I started from the bottom of the heart instead of the side. Butterfly is Soyloquesoy's simple butterfly with swallowtail. Don't recall where the heart came from and the flowers are fragments from Mary Konior Visual. First time I have tried the onion style tatting and I am pleased with the results. I finally found toddler sized caps and bucket hats. :) I have washed the caps and hats and bought the Aleen’s OK to Wash-it recommended by Batty Tatter. So, following the examples of Batty Tatter and CarolIvy I am going to try this out once the cap is dry.

Finished. This is for a 3 yr old little girl.



Now to get a bucket hat done. Still need extra trim for that one.

Awesome! She is going to loooove this! Did you sew it or glue it onto the bill?

Very, very cute MercyPres. You'll have to do them for all her friends, now.. Can you tell us exactly how to make the dimple heart chain?
I've just finished making a Jane's bookmark, long enough to trim a cap. I'm planning to make a heart too. I like the off centered designs on the front of the crown. Very classy.

Can you tell us exactly how to make the dimple heart chain?

Dimpled hearts are made with stitch count from Birgit Phelps Simple Angel only I started from the bottom of the heart instead of the side and 15 ds on the chains. heart is (8j5-5j5-8) chains are all 15 ds with no picots. I leave out the first picot in first heart and the last joining picot in the last heart)

Michelea, I used Aleen’s OK to Wash-it recommended by Batty Tatter.

PS:
