Choosing the right hat for cold days can be difficult, especially if you’re looking for them in a regular store – most of the time you find pieces, that are either poor quality or looks.
Material from which a hat is made is very important and if your goal is a better quality, making your own hat is the best way to achieve it. Even if you’re a beginner, you’ll be able to pick from a lot of different patterns, that will beautifully complete your look. Take a look at examples below and search for links to free patterns under the pictures.
