Sesen Lotus Flower Hat

Discover the captivating beauty of Ancient Egypt with our exquisite Lotus Motif Hat knitting pattern. Also known as Sesen, the lotus is a prominent symbol throughout Egyptian culture, often depicted on pillars, in tombs, and adorning the thrones and headdresses of Pharaohs. It represents the sun, rebirth, and creation, embodying the striking cycle of closing at night, sinking below the water, and rising again at dawn. This enchanting hat features the lotus as its centerpiece, beautifully surrounded by whimsical swirls at the brim that mimic coils of rope—a design choice inspired by their historical significance as counting markers in ancient times.

Atop this delightful hat, you'll find an intricately crafted Ankh, the symbol of eternal life, which holds the ‘breath of life’ essential for the afterlife in Egyptian belief. Whether you’re looking to bring a touch of luck or simply elevate your fashion game, this hat is a stunning choice for both functionality and style. With a charming double rolled brim and topped with two playful pom poms on long strings, this hat invites you to embark on an ethnic-knitting-time-travel-trip back to Ancient Egypt.
