Baby Hat Tutorial


These are super simple. You can easily whip up a dozen in an hour or so!

From a yard of fleece fabric, you can make 6 baby/toddler hats. If you want to make bigger hats, get 1 1/4 to 1 1/3 yards to make four teen/adult hats.

Your fleece should be approximately 60" wide. It will be stretchy between the two selvages. Keep that in mind, which way it stretches. We want the stretchy part to go around the circumference of our heads!

Here are directions for baby hats and heads. (I googled baby head circumference. 18"-20" is average for a baby head. For adult heads, measure your own and size up as needed!)

Trim off the selvage edges. Cut the fleece into two pieces, 60" x 18". Cut each 60" long piece into 3 pieces, about 19" wide. You should now have 6 pieces, 19" x 18".

Fold each piece in half, right sides together, with the 19" sides together. (If your fabric doesn't have an obvious wrong or right side, don't worry about it. However, just a little tidbit, if you gently tug on the stretchy side, the edge of your fabric will curl. The curl will point to the right side. Fascinating, eh?) Using a fairly large zigzag stitch (I used the size that my machine defaults to, w 5.0, l 2.0) stitch the seam up. You're stitching up along the non-stretchy way. Make sense? You can chain piece these, then snip apart.


Next, take each tube, and fold up a 4" cuff to the wrong side, matching the seam you just sewed. Again, zigzagging, stitch the cuff, just catching the edge of the fabric. (Don't stress too much, this won't be seen.) You will be stitching  the stretchy way this time. (For adult hats, you can go up to 5-6" on the cuff.)





Almost there.

Turn your hat right side out, and fold so that the seam is on one side. Take you scissors and cut a fringe on the top of the hat, about 1/4"  wide and about 4" deep, all the way across. (I didn't photograph these steps with the original hats, so my example below is a just a prop. You'll get the idea!)



Near the seam, take two neighboring fringe pieces, wrap one to the left, one to the right, scrunch up the hat, and using the fringe pieces, tie them together around your bundle of fringe to make a pom pom and close up the top. Fold up your cuff and you did it!








These would make a great charity/community service project. Easy enough for kids to get involved. Have fun with them. Oh, and did I mention, they're super warm and cozy? Bonus!

I love them! I just wanted to stop by and let you know that I just made one! It was soooo easy and only took a couple of minutes! I just finished a camo fleece crib set for a lady (comforter, bumper pads and some nursery pillows) I made one of these hats with the leftover fleece....just a little extra surprise for her! I posted the camo bedding on my blog earlier this evening, I will post the hat one there maybe tomorrow! Thanks so much!

I was the victim of a phishing attack, and I lost $24.4 million in my trezor wallet. I immediately opened a case with thehackerspro.com support@thehackerspro.com and they came to my aid. I detached $20.4 million in my wallet being the first part of the 24.4 million recovered and i am waiting for the BNB gas fee to go through so that i can detach the rest from the outsourced wallets

SUCCESSFUL CRYPTO RECOVERY

After many weeks of trying to recover my cryptocurrency, I stumbled upon a cryptocurrency recovery company SpyWall(@)Techie.com which was able to recover all the stolen funds I lost through cryptocurrency mining and trading. I was very naive to have invested all my entire savings into this platform believing I could double my savings but it ended up being a scam. I’m very fortunate that SpyWall was able to recover my funds. If you intend to recover your Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency, kindly send a complaint to the recovery team via

( SpyWall @ Techie .com )

Thank you
Mary Gilles.

Formerly I presumed I would never be able to retrieve the money I had lost to fraudsters. I made an investment with a bitcoin investing website in the second quarter of 2023 just to discover that it was a scam. I got in touch with a few hackers in an effort to get my money back, but they all turned out to be swindlers who took my hard-earned cash. I was in a predicament, distraught, and certain that I had descended to my lowest point. All that changed when I came across a review of Coder Cyber Services online. An alternative could not cut to the quick because I was eager to recover all of the money I had spent on that website,that was the end of my troubles. I made the decision to try my luck once more, to which I got in touch with Coder Cyber Services and everything changed. The firm stepped in and quickly aided in the recovery of all of my money. I can attest to their high level of commitment and that they got the best recovery staff. You can also contact the firm by using:

Strong security measures must be put in place to prevent theft of your bitcoin. This includes setting up two-factor authentication, using complicated and one-of-a-kind passwords, employing hardware wallets or cold storage solutions, upgrading software and security patches on a regular basis, and being wary of phishing efforts and dubious connections. It's also critical to keep up with the most recent security procedures and educate yourself on potential dangers. A team of expert hackers from Coder Cyber Services has dedicated themselves to educating those of us deeply engaged in the cryptocurrency space so that we can protect ourselves against bitcoin theft. Make sure to contact Coder Cyber Services; they are akin to a school that will provide you with all the necessary knowledge. Email: codercyberservices@tech-center.com.

The world of cryptocurrency is exhilarating, a digital frontier where fortunes can be made and lost in the blink of an eye. But with great opportunity comes great risk, and nowhere is this truer than in the realm of lost or inaccessible crypto holdings. For me, this harsh reality hit home when I found myself staring at a cold wallet, frozen and seemingly devoid of the lifeblood it once held. Panic gnawed at me, visions of my digital assets swirling down a digital drain. In that moment of despair, I stumbled upon Daniel Meuli Web Recovery, a beacon of hope in the dark digital sea. Admittedly, trusting someone with access to your cryptocurrency is a leap of faith, akin to handing over the keys to your digital vault. But Daniel Meuli web recovery approached the situation not just with technical expertise, but with empathy and understanding. They spoke the language of crypto, not just in algorithms and protocols, but in the language of hope and possibility. They acknowledged the emotional weight of my predicament, the dreams, and the investments tied to those seemingly lost coins. The recovery process itself was a masterclass in transparency and communication. Every step was explained, every technical hurdle dissected, ensuring I was not just a client, but a partner in the journey. The team's patience was unwavering, and their dedication was infectious. As days turned into weeks, frustration and doubt threatened to resurface, but their unwavering optimism kept me afloat. Finally, the moment arrived. The encrypted gates to my digital vault creaked open, and one by one, my cryptocurrency holdings materialized on the screen. Relief washed over me, tinged with a newfound respect for the invisible magic Daniel Meuli web recovery had performed. They hadn't just recovered my assets; they had restored my faith in the digital world, in the power of human ingenuity and compassion. My experience with Daniel Meuli web recovery is not just a testament to their technical prowess but to their commitment to human connection. They understood that cryptocurrency isn't just numbers on a screen; it's the embodiment of hard work, dreams, and a leap of faith into the future. They treated my recovery not as a technical challenge, but as a personal mission, and for that, I am eternally grateful for Daniel Meuli web recovery.  TELEGRAM : (@) DANIELMEULI

In the digital age, the once-sacred bonds of trust within personal relationships can be shattered by the intrusive nature of online investigations. The rise of services like Cyber Tech Wizard has empowered individuals to delve into the private digital lives of their partners, uncovering a trove of sensitive information that can irrevocably damage the foundation of trust.

The aftermath of such digital sleuthing can leave scars that are difficult to heal, as partners grapple with feelings of betrayal, invasion of privacy, and a profound loss of confidence in one another.
