My GS is wearing a hat to school on Friday to raise awareness of children with brain tumours. He is 5 and always loved hats, so has chosen a gold sparkly trilby which lights up. I'm pleased he feels confident enough to be expressive!
Started me thinking about hats and what a lot of memories they invoke.
Straw hats with ribbon for Sunday school, and knitted ones with a hidden hairband and a long pom pom.
WI meetings when ladies left their hats on.
The aunty who wore one back to front at my sister's wedding.
School hats with badges and boaters. Fur ones that tied under your chin.
I expect we all have hat memories. My neighbour wears his mum's gardening hat when weeding to remember her.
I still have some special occasion hats, and weekend hats, and crochet hats.
Do you have hat memories?
