OK this is the start of my Miss Dashwood adventure :) I have decided to substitute with a Jo Sharp Aran Weight Cotton/microfibre yarn so will be perfect for summer...hopefully. Although I have heard that the cotton is a bit of a b*stard to do the picot work with - cross your fingers for me ;) I chose a light summery green - didn't want to go a pink as I think, actually I know!, that the hat is really girly as is :)
