I went back and made two more felted hats using Judi Meissners pattern and had success this time. One of them even looks good on me! I used Paton’s wool and found that it felted to correct size in 10 minutes. The first one I used a fancy yarn(not fun fur) around the brim. The second one I used a fairisle design but it does not really show a design-I believe it was because my tension was looser while doing this section. I am off to make more. I bought some black and grey yarns to try.

Thank you very much for posting the photo of your
beautiful hat made with my simple & easy pattern.
Did you get the diagram for the flat seam? if not,
I will forward it to you in an email. Where did you
get the pattern? have you made any more hats?
