Automobiling Hat
May. 30th, 2021 03:01 pmI made the Wearing History 1908 Automobiling or Travel Hat the week after Easter. Then I kept meaning to do my hair and take pictures because this hat needs the support of hair beneath the brim. After seven weeks, I have determined that, while I might make a hat with no place to wear it, I am not going to make hair rats with no upcoming event that requires them. You're stuck with a picture of the hat lying flat on a table.

It is made of linen with a crinoline layer in the brim. There's a petersham band in the headsize opening. The crinoline gives the brim more body, but it still flops if it isn't supported. I bought some sizing to stiffen the brim if the hairstyle isn't enough to support it, but I'm waiting to see whether the sizing is needed before I do it.
It was a really quick and easy project, and the pattern went together perfectly.
