While huge flowers on hats are hardly my style, the hats and bands from Maggie’s Rose have universal toddler appeal.

The hats are beanie style and are intricately hand crocheted with soft, ribbon yarn and embellished with extremely large bejeweled blossoms. They stretch for a perfect fit over several years.

As you can see by the model pictured at right, these hats are super cute and are way cuter on than you’d even think when you first see the hat. In fact, I was taken aback by the size of the flower but as soon as it was on a little head it was perfect!
