This hat looks complicated but it’s easy and fun to knit! Petal & Leaf begins with a& rolled brim and a little bit of ribbing. The stockinette stitch body is finished with an exposed bind-off before adding the stems and leaves. Tie the stems (created with i-cords) to cinch up the top! The leaves can flop wherever they may.
