Bucket Hat — Textiles

Bucket Hat  —  Textiles

In Textiles, we have been focusing on learning about how to understand Commerical Patterns and how to use them correctly. Using Commercial Patterns was very new to me, and enjoyed using them. Although it was confusing at first but not too hard to understand, once I got the hang of it I really enjoyed it and would like to continue using Commerical Patterns maybe in the ongoing years ahead.

What are Commercial Patterns?

Commercial patterns are worldwide patterns issued by the States, Canada and the UK,  used to create a specific piece of clothing for example the bucket hat or a cap. 

What pattern did you use?
I used a Bucket Hat Pattern made by HelloSewing online. Overall, it was an easy pattern to follow and had clear instructions. The bucket hat has 5 parts and we printed out the commercial pattern templates to cut out our fabric. The 5 pieces of fabric are Top, Crown x2, and  Brim x2, the 2 crown and brim fabrics are sewn together to create a ring, the crown gets sewn together with the top, then sew the brim to the edge of the crown fabric. Once those steppes had been repeated for both patterns, I sewed them together to create the product that I have now.
