2/6

Grid: 1 square = 1 inch [25 mm]

Add inch seam allowances to all paern pieces.

Trace out and cut paern shapes on fold of graph paper.

CUTTING

Cut the crown side 2X; lining 2X ; interfacing 2X

Cut the crown top 1X; lining 1X; interfacing 1X

Cut the brim 2X; interfacing 1X

Cut the belt strap 2X; interfacing 1X

Cut the sweatband (grosgrain ribbon) 24 long X 2 wide.

ASSEMBLY

1. Iron fusible interfacing to wrong side of each crown piece and to one of each of the brim and strap pairs, followingmanufacturers directions.2. On each brim piece, pin and baste CB seam with right side together. Stitch seam using a seam allowance and press open.3. Layer the 2 brim pieces with right sides facing together and align the CB seams. Pin/baste outer edges together. Sew around theperimeter of the brim.

4. Grade and trim the seam allowance and turn brim right side out. Press outer edge flat.TIP: Due to fabric thickness, it is important to grade the seam allowances as you sew. The bulk will reduce the headfiing measurement.You may also take less of the seam allowance to account for the bulk.

5. Topstitch outer edge of brim. (I use the width of the presser foot as a spacer.) The more stitching you put, the stiffer the brim. Setaside.6. Layer the belt strap pieces with right sides facing together. Align and match up raw edges and pin/baste together. Machine-stitch across one short end and along the 2 long edges. Grade and trim seam allowances and turn strap right side out. Press outeredges flat. Topstitch around perimeter of the strap. Set aside.7. Pin/baste the side pieces to the top section, with right sides facing together. Ease the straight edges into the curved ones.Machine-stitch the 2 side seams of the crown portion. Press the seam open. (You may need to clip the seam allowance to get it to lieflat.) Turn the crown right side out.8. Repeat the same method for the hat lining. Insert the lining into the hat crown with wrong sides facing together. Baste lining tocrown around the circumference of the crown.

9. Align the CF and CB and the Xs of the crown and the brim. Match up these points, pin and basting with right sides together.Machine stitch the crown section to the brim, using a seam allowance.10. Sew in grosgrain ribbon as a sweatband. This should equal the head fiing measurement. Lay the ribbon on top of the seamallowance along the top of the brim and edge stitch along the ribbon edge. Overlap at CB. Grade and trim the seam allowance .Turn the ribbon up into the crown to conceal the raw edge of the seam allowance and tack to CB of hat with hand stitching.11. On the left side of the hat exterior above the seamline of the brim, handstitch the open end of the belt strap to the center of thecrown side piece using a narrow seam allowance. (Do this with the belt strap pointing to the front of the hat.) Fold the strap back ontoitself and slip on the buckle. Wrap the strap around the hats crown and slip loose end into the buckle. (Add punched eyelets if youare using a pronged belt buckle).

May 8, 2009 at 1:34 pmThanks for the source, Hilary. Ill add it to the post.

Erin Says:

May 20, 2009 at 11:30 amIt would be helpful to see the result of your paern. The image seems like a hat shaped from a single piece of felt, asopposed to several pieces of upholstery fabric sewn together as you suggest. It would be interesting to see how youvetranslated the style.

Haley Says:

June 12, 2009 at 8:18 amhey, I just spent 3 hours trying to make this, and I am not trying to be mean at all just le ing you know my results: I followed themeasurements and directions exactly, and my brim ended up being WAAAY too wide (aka hangs down to about my nose) andit was too short as well (it was missing about 3 inches and left the whole CB of the top panel brimlessHave you made this hatbefore? Im wondering what went wrong. I go to fidm and have had paern drafting classes up to my ears, so I expected Iwould do fine. But something went horribly wrong

wkdesigner Says:

June 12, 2009 at 12:42 pmHi HaleySorry that you are having problems with the hat construction. I have to admit that the sizing is somewhat limited (it is ameduim) and if your head measurement isnt 22 1/2 inches then you might find it is too big or too small. However, from yourresults I dont doubt that you have done the drafting correctly. I suspect that the problem lies in the variables such as thefabric used and the thickness of it. It is amazing how quickly 4 layers of thin fabric will reduce your measurements.

To help you with your particular hat, reducing the brim width will not affect the fit if you find it too large but you must keepthe seam that connects to the crown as is. (if you find the seam allowance is too wide or buckles, clip into it to release thetension) Also as a suggestion, when aaching the brim to the crown, divide each piece into quarters. Pin together at thesepoints; then pin these quarters by distributing any fullness (curved seams dont sew into straight ones very well) to preventrunning out of the brim as you did. Please dont give up, Harley. Id hate to have you give up on your hat after only one try.

June 29, 2009 at 9:21 pmI will have to double check this paern for you Haley. I make hat paerns to measure. Just giv me some time to look at it.

December 2, 2009 at 2:27 amWhy dont you have a photo of one you made instead of a Banana Republic photo? I would prefer to see yours.

Zoe Says:

March 17, 2010 at 2:41 amI would also like to see the hat that you made and not the photo from Banana Republic. I tried making this hat and the crownwas too high, it did not fit snug around the head. I didnt even bother to finish it.
