AndyL1 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 Has anybody out there ever made a tricorn or even a cavalier hat? I was thinking about making one, but I've never made a hat before. Any tips, suggestions, patterns, or photos? Thanks, Andy Quote Blackthorn Leather on Etsy • Blackthorn Leather on Facebook

Any tips, suggestions, patterns, or photos?Thanks, Andy As it happens, I've literally just been asked by a friend who runs the local ghost walk if I can make him one of these for his tour and I was going to ask the same question. So if anyone can help, I'd also be thankful D. Quote

AndyL1 Posted January 14, 2009 Author Report Posted January 14, 2009 WOW! That hat is cool. A bit overboard for what I'm thinking about but a good inspiration. I think I can figure out how to make the brim. It's the "bowl" that your head sits in that I have to ponder over. I think if I look over some cowboy hats I may get some more clues into how to make something like this. I know there's guys out there that make these for a living so I don't want anybody to feel inclined to give out their secrets. Quote Blackthorn Leather on Etsy • Blackthorn Leather on Facebook
Members twinklestarchild Posted January 15, 2009 Members Report Posted January 15, 2009 So funny, I just ran across this posted on a steampunk Live Journal community. It's for making a Jack Sparrow hat, but could easily be modified to whatever specific pattern. It is a .pdf. What would you do with a drunken sailor? http://www.houseofanoria.com/CaptainJack/C...arrow%20Hat.pdf Quote
