Tried this. Doesn't look at all like a Fadora. Just a big floppy hat. No idea what I did wrong. :(
ReplyDeleteTry got not do so many increases ,as that makes the hat bigger. Stop increasing about an inch and a half then what the pattern calls for. I used double strand it makes the hat more firmer, so u can shape it.
DeleteI am sorry about that, if you followed the pattern and the brim is too floppy you will have to work with the brim a little bit, it does tend to look "wavy" sometimes but working with it usually helps. When making the brim try taking away one round and see how that works for you. Keep me posted and I will do my best to help.
ReplyDeleteHi. I used a thinner hook and double yarn to crocheted the brim. In other hat I made I crocheted two brims and between both I put a piece of plastic.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the tutorial. Sorry for my bad English.
Hugs from Argentina.

ReplyDeleteGood Evening, Can the Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo be used to make the Fedora instead of using two strands of yarn?
ReplyDeleteHi, Can you tell me what circumference this hat is? I want to make it for a 20 inch head.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
This was wonderful I love this hat
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time crocheting and I love the way you give detail info to were I could follow and make this hat. Am hoping that you have more beginner friendly tutorials I can use to keep making projects. Do you have any tutorials for summer cloths and jewelry's.
ReplyDeleteLove..love..love this pattern! The best I've seen so far. Thank you for sharing!
