Brief description
The way a hat is finished and trimmed can often make it stand out from the crowd. Crin (or horsehair in the USA) is a beautiful fabric which can add wonderful mystique and allure to the plainest of hats, so it is well worth learning how to use it. However, it can be difficult to work with and creating with crin needs practice. In this ebook we teach you some of the tricks which can help you to make the most of this gauzy hat fabric. It is available in many widths and a variety of types. Once you have mastered some of the techniques, you will begin to see what a wonderful asset it can be.



We show how easy it is to gather crin and shape it.	And even how to make a complete hat with it. Every step is illustrated for you with easy to follow instructions alongside.	This straw hat, which is beautifully trimmed with crin, is one of the most popular among the hats on display during our talks and demonstrations. The fabric adds height and width to the style, a narrow veil-effect just above the eyes and all without adding weight or distracting from the simple, classic shape.
