Got an order for a hat by my mate Rickard. This time I remembered to take some photos. This makes a tube. If you want a taper you have to make a slight bend for the side. The side sewn on Make a smaller hole than your head and cut slits to measure… …or you can decide on a slightly larger hole and sew darts in your liner for a more flexible fit I tapered it a little by not sewing the side quite 90 degrees Rick wanted ear protection so here’s the first try All but the brim seams done Brim done and waxed with microcrystallene wax Yours truly The “earmuffs” and neck wind protection The innards and added paracord If you don’t like the style, there’s plenty of hats out there Post navigation Laminated paddleCargo pants
