🧵 WHAT'S INCLUDED
✔️ Pattern pieces for the crown top, the ruched band, the side panels and the brim, in three sizes, to print at home (A4 and US Letter) with a test square
✔️ Step-by-step instructions with photographs: the gathering, the four-panel crown, the lined brim and the topstitching

✔️ Seam allowances marked on every piece

📏 SIZES
Three sizes by head measurement: S/M 56 cm, M/L 58 cm, L/XL 60 cm. Measure round the head just above the ears and choose the nearest; the ruched crown gives a little ease.

Lightweight cotton for the lining, 0.4 m / ½ yd
Matching or contrast topstitching thread
A universal 90/14 or denim needle
