After much hair-pulling and gnashing of teeth, I gave up trying to be clever with my hat-making, and spent an hour yesterday evening sewing the plastic hair band to the inside of the hat.
And it works! Thank goodness the hat itself is straw - I'm not sure any other material would have been so forgiving. Luckily I found some thread in exactly the right shade of red, so any wayward stitches are invisible to the naked eye.
I love it! I'm pleased with the rakish angle, the colours, and of course, the fact that it cost less than £6.00 to make. Philip Treacy, eat your heart out .............
Very nice. That's an awesome result :o)
