This tutorial will show you how to make a small top hat with a define brim and top without the use of a hat block. My approach to felting hats is to keep it accessible to the hobbyist. This tutorial is great for felt beginners and intermediate. It is more difficult than a beret due to the multiple manipulations to create the shape. It is a good starter if you want to pursue creating hats. I have included a short clip at the end showing how I needle felted a flower. I couldn’t find the original clip for the needle felting of this particular hat so I used one I made for a hood, its the same.
The video IS BILINGUAL english and french, I switch language in the video. It does not matter because while I talk in another language you can still watch me doing the work. . There is NO captions.
The tutorial IS divided in 13 short clips like my others tutorials. The total length of videos is about 1h40.
The video IS bilingual , it is ENGLISH and FRENCH. There is NO captions.
All my tutorials are hosted on youtube. You have access to it as long as youtube will exist. You can rewatch them as many times as you want.
My classes are frills free. No fancy videos tricks no fancy intros I got straight to the making with my phone camera.
HOW MANY SKEINS?
1 skeins: mittens wrists, accents in a hat, or in weaving, needle and wet felting
2 skeins: beanie hat, texture in a knitted scarf, cowl, neck warmer

TIPS
Alternate rows of heavy textured art yarns with single or smoother yarns, it will keep the work lighter and showcase the texture contrasts
NEEDLES
I use Prym circular needles, because they have a special tip shape helping pick up stitches of art yarns. I also use Prym ergonomic hooks, they are amazing.
CAN I KNIT OR CROCHET YOUR YARNS
yes
WHAT WOOL IS IT
Mainly I use merino 22 micron and sometimes BFL 23-25. And lots of other fibres like tencel, silk, curly locks and mohair.

For now on, I no longer accept returns. I provide enough photos and information online, and I’m available to answer any additional info prior purchase. Taking so much photos, editing them so they look as accurate as possible, uploading them, takes a considerable amount of time on top of creating the products. I have been selling online for over 18 years. If you can’t deal with screens calibration differences, and don’t read description and don’t look closely at my photos, maybe its better for you to buy in person. Im sorry but I can’t handle the uncertainty of returns anymore, as well as all the costs involved.
However: things happens and I’m open to offer you a store credit.
