Butterfly Cloche

I have always been intrigued in the hats made with the little "butterflies" formed by making chains and then puling them together to look like a butterfly.

I like how the butterflies look from the side.
The hat is made to have a butterfly over each ear
and one in the front.

But, if you have followed me long enough, you know I can't make something the normal way. I wanted my butterflies to be a different color, and texture, than the hat, so I combined sock yarn (because that was what I had in the basket next to my chair) and some #3 thread for the butterflies. 

A little better look at the side of the hat.

Pretty happy with the outcome. What do you think?

Here's the front . . .
reminds me of the old fashioned turban hats women wore.
