Hats!

Hats!: make classic hats and headpieces in fabric, felt, and straw by Sarah Cant — Hats were once a required part of a woman's wardrobe, but as they've fallen out of fashion, so has the art of millinery, or hat-making. This book brings it back with clear photographic illustrations of how to make your own hats from straw, felt, and fabric. From cloche to trilby to beret and beyond, this book has all the details on how to make your own fabulous headwear at home.
