Brief description Hats made of silk are extremely beautiful. The fabric has such a wonderful sheen and is available in so many types and colours. However, they are not for beginners, as some skill and care is needed to make them. Our instructions make it as easy as possible for you, with detailed photographs of every step and easy-to-follow instructions alongside. All the equipment and materials you will need are listed, together with advice about which block shapes are best to use. If selling your silk hats (and they are eminently saleable), remember that the price of such hats should be significantly higher to reward you for the extra work involved. Expect, too, that your reputation will be enhanced when it becomes known that you can create such hats!
Two beautiful examples of the sort of hats you can make once you've learnt the techniques, and have the block shapes you need.
