We've made this pattern in a lovely Scottish tartan oilskin/waxed cotton with a cotton lining as we prefer it as a rain hat. You however can use whatever fabric you like! (We'd suggest minimal stretch, heavier weight fabrics).

Sizing: The pattern provided covers sizes XS-Large and comes with an easy to read User Guide. It also includes step by step pictures. We've tried to avoid any complicated sewing terms to make the journey as seamless(!) as possible.

This PDF sewing pattern is made up of 8 pattern pdf. and an 8-page user guide (A4 size). It includes a separate file for the pattern tiles and instruction booklet, so that should you wish, you can print only the pattern and read the instruction files on a computer or tablet.

These files are intended to be used and printed at home. *If printing at a print shop, please advise the print shop to print at 100% scale or print "as is". Ask the print shop to not scale, or fit to page, as this will throw the proportions off.
