Spring Hats

This is only the second time I've made a hat. I was making a gardening hat for myself, but when I added fluffy pretty color yarn to the edge of the brim, it changed to fashionable one... Moreover, I got an another idea, so I finally made two kinds of hats! 

This pink hat was a gardening hat. I made a crochet flower brooch for the hat to keep the brim of the hat up.


However, you may wear the hat without the brooch.
 


The other hat is a light green color! I made the brim short for this hat, and attached a flower with a crochet motif.



I placed a button made from shell at the center of the flower.


Which type of the has is your favorite?

I used cotton yarn for these hats, and added nylon fur yarn at edge of the brims. The fur yarns are baby colors, and the texture is very soft. I bought the fur yarns in Japan last fall, so I'm not sure I can get them again. I'm going to sell these hats in my shop. I'm also willing to sell the patterns as well.
