Lately, the weather here has been very cold, especially early in the morning when I’m heading to work. I used to have this old, saggy beanie that I’d just throw on, but honestly, e don tire. The thing don lose shape and no dey even keep head warm again.
So instead of buying a new one, I said let me sew one for myself. It's really simple and I’ll show you how I did it using a pattern I drafted myself.
Take both fabric pieces, place them right sides together and sew the curved tops of both sides together leaving the center opened
Fold together to achieve the shape of the pattern
Pin every pieces in the middle cutout, and sew everything together.
Turn it inside out and boom ✨✨✨ your new beanie hat is ready!
This cold has been humbling 😂, and this old saggy hat of mine has serve its time abeg.
Sewing this new beanie didn’t take long, and it feels good to wear something I made myself. It fits better, looks better, and it actually keeps my head warm.
Thanks for reading! If you sew too or want to try making this, let me know, I’d love to see what you come up with.
