We've pulled together all of our favorite handmade hat projects, including knitted winter caps and shady summer toppers. There's one for everyone, no matter the season.
Keep little ones toasty with this winsome felt hat.
It wouldn't be spin to describe this craft as ridiculously easy, although in some ways that's exactly what you do with a Knitwit: Spin (well, wrap) thread around a circular or square-shaped tool to create loopy rosettes. Rendered with luxurious yarns such as mohair, these florets look decidedly modern.
Get baby ready to fight the winter chill: a festive pilot's cap embellished with felt hearts helps keep tiny ears toasty.
Cut two large hearts from felt. Then use a needle and thread to stitch them to the cap at three points. If you want the decoration to be permanent, affix hearts with fabric glue before sewing.
Though at first glance, knitting looks like a complicated trick, it is in fact a surprisingly easy technique to learn. This hat is a great project to start with.
Whether you use a baseball cap or sailor's hat to make this headgear, your kids will love wearing it -- and their delicate skin will be protected from the sun. An island paradise complete with pretty shells, the most evil shark in the sea, and a bright (but slightly befuddled) lobster will sit just right on young silly heads everywhere.
Adorn store-bought hats with bells before wrapping them to give as gifts. Here, we sewed small bells in different colors onto the cuff of the hat to make it really stand out. Match it with a set of gloves or mittens and a scarf and you'll be begging to go ice-skating.
These adorable hats are reversible and will keep the sun off of your little one's face. We also have adult-sized templates, so you can make one for yourself.
