How to Sew 6 Panel Bucket Hat + Skull Cap ( Free download )

I may have to head outside in a while, so let me upload the pattern first. Remember to set the printer to A4 paper and 96% scale. Or it won’t be the same size as the pattern I made. Click on the image below to download from google drive … Or ! For those who would like to support my channel, you can download from my Ko-Fi shop, it is a pay as you wish item.

The video tutorial is here :

will be back to update the post, later !

Updated below :

I made the pattern by cloning it from an existing hat. As I was testing the pattern, it kinda got boring , so I varied the brims to make it fun.

on the last step, mark the selvage line on the pattern. The whole hat is cut on a bias

For materials, thick canvas , jeans material is a good choice. In the tutorial , I used a lighter weight cotton so I added iron-on interfacing ( the stiff kind for making shirt collars ). Come to think about it, if you use iron on interfacing, you don’t really need to cut them on a bias ? It’s all glued into one sheet. Not sure about this thought yet.

I skipped the over stitching on the hat’s crown cuz my machine doesn’t like it at all, uneven stitches all over :

You can sew an extra crown in thinner fabric to cover up the raw edges on the inside. I think that’s about it. Have a nice weekend everybody !!!
