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

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

I cant seem to find the thread but its in here somewhere. Someone made a really cool one with the world map style image on it. Turned out pretty neat.

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.

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?
