The plan is for a square shaped hat, so I've cut out a template 52 x 22cm. I'll then piece together all my scrumbles to fit the template.
I've taken a few progress photos so that you can get an idea of how it comes together.
I started with a few flower motifs:
And joined some of them together:
Then worked some single crochet around them:
And added some embroidery to embellish:
See how it starts to take on a life of it's own?

I absolutely love it! I so wish I knitted/crocheted.
That looks like so much fun!!
[...] Freeform Hat in Progress. I love how this Laughing Purple Goldfish Designs post gives some insight into how the process works when making a freeform but wearable piece. [...]
I enjoyed following the whole entry, I always thought one of the main things to count when you write a blog is learning how to complement the ideas with images, that's exploiting at the maximum the possibilities of a ciber-space! Good work on this entry!
