Pattern Description:
Men's and Boy's caps
Pattern Sizing:
Kids-Adult
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
More girly, but overall yes.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
The instructions were a little cumbersome, and there were no illustrations to explain which piece was what, but it's a 3 piece pattern, so the level of detail was just fine for this project.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Would you believe that it's my opinion that it is difficult to find decent hat patterns? Just finding a pattern that didn't look weirdly costumey or call for wires and a hot glue gun made me like it.
Fabric Used:
Sparkly denim, originally made into a skirt for myself many years ago. It looks much better as a hat than it ever did as a skirt.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
None.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I'm definitely planning to sew this again, perhaps as a more manly version for the boys as originally intended by the pattern producers.
Conclusion:
Great pattern and great timing for it's release since I needed to get my daughter a blue hat ASAP.
