Looking to make a down hat / beanie and was wondering, if anyone had any info to help lay it out? I've looked online and BPL, but needing some more ideas.

Thanks for reading!

There is a thread on hammockforums somewhere for a down beanie. Will see if I can find it.

Thanks for the post! I've seen both write ups, but was wondering, if anyone else had any experience or helpful hint to making a down hat!

Thanks again!

Derek: I bought a Mountain Equipment Co-op musher's hat 3 sizes larger than I usually wear, opened the back seam, and stuffed it full of quilted polyester insulation. Sewed it back up! Might be the easiest approach!
