Project 002 — Drafting a Bucket Hat

In this post, I'll show you how to draft a bucket hat sewing pattern to your custom measurements.

Hello my sewing mathy friends! Today, we're going to build on the last lesson—How to Draft a Flat Brim Sunhat—and draft our own custom bucket hat. Like last week, there are just three pattern pieces, the crown, the side and the brim. But this week, I thought we'd step it up a bit and make an oval shaped crown and an angled brim.
