Description
Watch out, it's a big file!Also see how to color fleece eyes to go on your hat. --> [link]
How to replace the band with ear-flaps! --> [link]
And how to sew on ears! --> [link]
Pattern: also notes the size of the rectangle
NOTE: pattern includes a 1/4" or .6cm seam allowance. That means sew that far from the edge.
If you are one of the many people only familiar with the metric system, I'm sorry I didn't include those measurements but here is a wonderful conversion tool. --> [link]
Alright you've been waiting for it so here it is. Firstly I'd like to state that this was a big pain to make. I have no idea how others can stand to make these.
Now this is just a basic hat so you can embellish it however you want. Please don't ask me how to make anything specific; either you'll have to figure it out or buy it from me.
Please don't post this anywhere, kindly leave a link instead.
Tutorial (c) me, Clearkid - For the glory of God!
Edit: OK, so I've had several people express confusion on the last step. I will attempt to clarify it here:
First sew the short edges of the band together, forming a loop. Then fold it the long way with the seam inside so you have a double thick loop. Take your main hat part and turn it inside out with the seams facing out. Turn the hat upside-down like a bowl! Now, take your double thick band with it's two raw edges facing up, and place it INSIDE the hat so that those two edges line up the the edge of the hat. Pin it together starting with the seam of the loop lined up with the back seam of you hat. Then fold it in half and pin the front, and then the sides and in-between. Then you're going to sew the tree layers together at the top. When you've finished, take out your pins and fold the brim down, and turn the hat right-side-out again to finish.
Now, that's the detailed explaination. In essence, all you're really doing in the last step, is sewing the brim to the bottom of the hat in a way that hides the seam on the inside. Hope it helps guys! If you still have questions, feel free to post them here.
Want to see what others have made? --> [link]
And one last thing. If you make a hat, I'd love to see it. You can post your links here. :3

You may have printed the pattern out too small. Check your browser print settings and before you print to make sure everything is set to 100%. If it prints correctly, the measurements on the pattern should match your ruler.

Thank you! =] I actually found out I was using a fabric that has 0% stretching ability. I went to the store and got fleece and now I have a beautiful new hat! ^^

If I have a head circumference larger than 22" or if I want to make it a little bit larger for the future, would it be a good idea to make the triangles(I guess you could call them) slightly larger? You did a wonderful job with all of the hat tutorials by the way! Keep making your awesome hats too! You really inspired a large group of people!

Since fleece stretches, the pattern fits a band with a range of 20-24 nicely. If you want to modify it to be larger or smaller you can add or subtract from the width. Likewise, if you want it shallower or so deep it covers your eyes you can adjust the length too. The base is a good middle ground though.

I made a dinosaur one for my boyfriend and a kitty one for my sister. I made like two flukes earlier, so i sewed scrap fabric over the failed parts and one of them looks like a flapper hat.
Great tutorial! These hats are so simple to make once you get the hang of it!

oh, ANOTHER question, (im getting a little tedious, i know) I dont understnd the last part, do u sew the edge of the band to the hat, or u sew the whole band inside the hat, cuz i see that the band is OUTSIDE on the photo and not INSIDE as u said to do. (sorry for being so tedious)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
clearkid In reply to gabrieleven [2011-06-04 19:50:25 +0000 UTC]
you put the band inside and then just sew the edge so you flip the band down and the seam is on the inside.

clearkid In reply to gabrieleven [2011-06-04 19:53:30 +0000 UTC]
There isn't a piece for it because it would take three sheets of paper to print it. Just cut a rectangle 3.5 inches wide and as long as the circumference of your head.

Measure around your head, that's how long the rectangle should be.

I was gonna try, then I realized that I have no idea where this triangle pattern thingy is T_T
Is it just that I have to print off this image after I download it? Or is the triangle somewhere else that I completely fail at trying to find?
