Hats Hats and Hats

I love to wear hats and i love my kids to wear them too (too bad they are not in the same frequency as mine), especially bucket hats where they are wide brim to protect you from sun ray.

After i made K's pj pants, i used the M&M's fabric to make him a bucket hat. I just love this M&M's fabric. It as cute pictures, nice colours.

This time i made Reversible Bucket Hat  by Oliver+S . It has 4 sized XS - L (from 6 months to 8 years old). The pattern is true to its size and it is just fit perfectly on K's head. I made a lot of hats with that pattern and i just love how it turned out.

Soon, i tried to find bucket hat patterns for adult. First i tried Kitsch Bitsch. For Asians, please do size S or the smallest size available. This pattern has a narrow brim and a wide side. The hat turned out to be really "deep" that at the end the brim will fall on your eye levels and just cover your eyes, which i don't really like. That's for me as not everyone hat the same face shape.

Then i tried Martha Stewart bucket hat. It just way too big. It worse than Kitsh Bitsch. When i made this, i have to make few adjustment. The brim is really wide. If you made this hat, you just need to put thicker fusible interfacing so the brim won't be so flimsy.

At the end, i just combine Kitsch Bitsch and Martha Stewart hats, make a few adjustable and at the end make the hat that i really like.
