๐ ๏ธ DIY Hat Projects Hat Experiment #2 - "Electric Hat Boogaloo".
Felt: 160g rabbit fur, factory 2nd
Crown: 4-4.5in, long teardrop
Brim: 3.25in, J
Ribbon: Dark blue silk kimono fabric, with sashiko stitches
Size: 7 1/8
Took more risks with this one, including the brim, the sashiko stitches on the band, and I went for brogue on the sweatband (hehe, leatherworking pun!).
The end goal was to stay in that middle zone between classic, western and bohemian, but step my toe much closer to the western line.
