What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

A taupe Knots for worship yesterday.

Gannon today. New felt is never going to be as nice as old felt but Michael does a great job and I’ve learned how to use a little stiffener and steam to get the shape I want out of his thin vintage-feel pouncing.

How tall is that ribbon?

Not that wide really. 2.5cm, so just under an inch.

Great all round look, Jonathan, including the background. Love that Nr. 1, my friend.

His Excellency by Dalton.

This hat was the model for my Gannon. The Gannon ended up with much more taper than I wanted but I like that effect even better (as well as the green hue).

I do like those colors, David.

The Dalton is very impressive felt and of course the Gannon is beaver. I’m still waiting for rain to give the Gannon a final quality test before fully accepting it. Michael is waiting patiently to reblock if necessary but we’ve had a dry spell here for 3 or 4 weeks it seems.
