I’m always trying to find some use for my proof yards. This time I used some cotton denim to test drive a hat pattern I found on line. I’m not real excited to make more of these. The head fitting portion of the hat is too floppy, the brim is not wide enough for NM sun, and it’s not as easy to make as the pattern instructions made it out to be. Of course, I did things a bit differently than the instructions suggested, so the problems are probably my own making.
My next effort will be something like a baseball cap. I’ll see what’s available. I still have LOTS of proofs to use up!
