I recently made a hat for my dear friend Kaitlin using this pattern from knitty.com, one of my very favorite sites for patterns (they have years of archives which are super easy to browse and contain just about anything you could think up).
The knit lace is incredibly easy, made with yarn-overs and knitting stitches together--once you fall into the rhythm of the pattern it knits up super quick. Per Kait's request, I added the visor and band (which were both made up on the fly, no pattern), and buttons she had picked out.

The pattern is worked from the top down, something I'm not very used to, but was super easy.

This is the end of the Foliage pattern-- at this point I simply crocheted a visor and knit the band.
