Thanks Mike. Too many great hats over the past couple of days to individually comment on.
Hope those of you in that part of the world had a good Thanksgiving.
Another green one today - one of the new Panizzas from RMR. Tried it brim up for a change, but I'm not sure I'm a brim up sort of person, or maybe brim up needs to be without a pinch...
I found you could get minor variations in colour (some areas end up cleaner than the rest on mid-grey felts) if you just spot cleaned so now I soak the whole hat, and brush it whilst damp. One of the standard sized tins (125ml in metric measurements :) ) is about right for doing an average...
