1880s Buckram Hat Pattern

TV550 - 1880s Buckram Hat Pattern. This is a pattern for a buckram hat frame, covered with fabric. It has a tapered crown, and narrow brim. It perches lightly on top of the head, slightly forward, and held in place with hat pins. Four crown heights allow for a wide variety of styles. Made with millinary wire, the hat is very durrable and holds a good shape. We provide directions for one method of covering the frame during making up.
