What is a cloche?
According to Wikipedia: "The cloche hat or simply cloche is a fitted, bell-shaped hat for women that was invented in 1908 by milliner Caroline Reboux. They were especially popular from about 1922 to 1933. Its name is derived from cloche, the French word for "bell".

Looking at historical references, this hat style seems to come into vogue every 20 years or so ... and right now it appears to be having a re-resurgence.

Our Lucky Cloche version is knit on the single bed and features knitting options for making this your own.

If you can work short rows and decreases, you can knit this hat!
