Description

Two wool caps I created. No pattern, drafted one of my own. First one is a basic newsboy cap from the 19th century through the early 20th century. It is made from a scraped army blanket. The second one is a modified newsboy cap, with a retro 70’s appeal, designed based on the hat worn by JJ in the 70s-80s TV show “Good Times.” It is made from grey wool and navy blue flannel. Both have vintage buttons sewn on top.

Material Notes

Wool, flannel and cotton linings.

      Have to dig around and find the pattern. It is quite easy (or hard, depending on skill level) Will put up steps and instructions later.
