Inspired by all the fantastic hats of the 1930s-1940s, this tilt hat uses short row shaping and blocking to get its distinct vintage lines.

Yarn is held doubled through out and any feltable worsted weight yarn will work.

It is highly recommended purchasing an inexpensive Styrofoam “wig form” head at a beauty supply store to block and pin the felted hat on it. Otherwise a bowl can also substitute for the hat block.
