Crocheted Cowboy Hat

Yahoo! Here it is! I finished crocheting the cowboy hat. The pattern

was not easy. Since it is hard crochet it is done with two strands of yarn. I wore it once and already was asked to make one for someone else who is willing to pay for it. It was really a challenge but once I got past the crown I enjoyed it. it is definitely fun wearing it. However, where does one wear a Pink Cowboy Hat? I don't go to to rodeos; I don't live in the West; I don't ride horses. It is definitely an eye catcher though. I guess whenever I want a little extra attention, I'll wear it. I splurged and bought a pink bolo to match. I already had the shiny pink shirt. the actual stitching is not as perfect as I would like it to be -- but when I started it, it was only to learn the pattern well enuf to be able to help Mary who really wants to make one for Country Thunder. There is an imperfection near the brim of the hat, so I found a cowgirl angel pin and put it right over that spot. Anyway I'll wear it whenever I feel pink-ish. Fun!
