This is the best video I found after watching more than 20 videos. I watched both of your videos and just made an awesome newsboy hat; It is a perfect fit just with a first try. It took me two days from pattern to a hat. Many thanks for making this video
1:00 after trying two attempts I finally found your video and love it. But I would like to add elastic. Do you have one that shows same style but with elastic?
Hi there, thanks for your video. I’m making this hat up in herringbone tweed. Any thoughts on cutting out to get the most attractive patterning on the cap?
Hi Gil, I followed your video on 6 segment cap drafting and thought it was excellent - paced very well and your instructions and logic are very clear. When I wanted to go to your recommended url for construction of a baseball cap I wasn't able to bring up the site/video. Could you check the url you listed and/or provide the name of the site?
@@StitchingVulture Thankyou for your prompt reply. I have followed up and found the site. I wonder if you might have suggestions about how a 17thC cap "made from a rectangle of velvet" was drafted. I have tried a few folds but it eludes me. The cap is such an appealing object that I would like to replicate what our ancestors made. Please see the cap at the Victorian and Albert Museum site. There are two: collections.vam.ac.uk/item/0353236/nightcap-unknown and collections.vam.ac.uk/item/0139654/nightcap-unknown. With thanks
Such a great video. I am very tempted to try it. I have a question. I just purchased a beautiful linen newsboy cap and the top was securely tacked down in three places to the visor. Is one supposed to remove this? Or does it hold the hat together better during use. I’m think of tailored jackets that often have the pockets and/or pocket flaps tacked closed/down to preserve the shape before sale. I always remove this from the jackets but I’m not sure about the hat.
Really good video, thanks! Used this and the drafting video and have just made a prototype hat for a cosplay. Never made anything like this before but I think for a first attempt it turned out really well ^u^
Your tutorial is the best I have ever watched, it is very easy to follow and ver well explained. Thank you so much

I do not, but you can treat the band the same way to make a casing for pants or a skirt.
Thank you. This video is very helpful.

Mark the lines of the fabric on the pattern to match your stripes as you cut, and cut the pieces individually rather than with folded fabric.

I just checked the URL and it is working on my end. The name of the channel is Proper Fit. They have excellent tutorials for cap construction.

If you want to keep the crown in place, yes. If the thread is a contrast color, then it could just be basting and can be removed.

Great video 🙏 Thank you ❤
Where can I find out how to make this pattern
The video is on my channel.
Great video! Tnx dude!
Good video
I just love 😗😘 it
Genial gracias!!
Looks like a baker boy hat. News boy hats usually has 8 panels and the panel seem lines up at the center of the brim.
You can divide it into as many sections as you want. You can also line up the brim wherever you want.
Me watching this without any idea how to sew and has no materials to make one: Interesting..
Omg you know check aptrifg, love
