Title: Flat Cap.
Post by: Guinevere of Leonesse on August 12, 2009, 10:16:58 AM
Hello people. I am in a bit of an emergency. I am after a blue renaissance flat cap and needing one by the 22nd of August. I hate hats but going to give it a try to wear one with my snood and gown.

Can anyone help me where I can find one, I've never sewn one at all and if someone else can, please let me know asap if they have the time. Thanks,

Guinevere.

Here you go:  http://www.talltoad.net/caps.html  Tall Toad makes great hats.  If however you want to try to sew your own, and they are very easy to do, here are some instructions: http://www.sempstress.org/patterns/hatmaking/flatcap.shtml  Hope these help.

Very easy to sew!  I would try that.
Several of the big 3 patterns include flat caps.
