Merki

We make the following measurements:

How to sew a women's cap with a visor with 6 wedges?

We will sew a cap-gavrosh with 6 wedges . This style suggests an increased volume of the upper part. Such a cap will add youth, give energy, and with it temperament.

Would need:

  • the main fabric, an area of ​​0.5 m2, flaps can be used;
  • lining fabric - 0.5 m2;
  • material for a peak.

Advice! Due to the general softness of the “gavrosh” design, its visor can be made without an additional dense layer.

Building patterns

The construction is similar to an ordinary cap - a six-link, but add 2-3 cm in the middle of the wedge to get the required volume of the upper part of the cap.

  • The head volume is divided into 6 parts, this will be the width of the lower part of the wedge.
  • We put off the height of the cap in the center.
  • We determine where you will have the widest place of the wedge, it should correspond to the end of the vertical part of the cap. That is, after this section a flat cap bottom will form.
  • Narrowing the wedge.
  • The pellet is a double piece with a length equal to the circumference of the head, you can add 1 cm to the fit.
  • The width of the visor is chosen arbitrarily.
  • Its smaller circumference is approximately 1/3 of the head circumference, but this is also determined individually.

The patterns are designed for a head circumference of 54-55 cm.

  1. wedge - 6 parts;
  2. peak - 2 details;
  3. box - 2 parts.

Cut on fabric

We lay out the patterns on the prepared ironed fabric . It is important to have all the wedges strictly in one direction along the shared thread:

  • We are kissing. Allowances of 0.5-1.5 cm, depending on the fabric.
  • Cut out.
  • Similarly, we work with parts made of lining fabric. For the visor do not sew a lining.

Sew details

Stages of work:

  • We wedge wedges. It is more convenient to do this in two blanks of three wedges, you get two semicircles.
  • Stitch these semicircles together.
  • At the center, we cut the corners of the wedges so that there is no thickening.
  • Similarly, we work with wedges made of lining material.
  • Turn the main blank of the cap inside out, on top of it we put the lining face up. Sew the lining.
  • We sew the visor blanks.
  • We turn out.
  • We build at a distance of 0.75 - 1 cm from the edge.
  • If you insert a sealant in the visor, then make it a drawing 0.5 cm smaller in all sizes, if your machine cannot flash several layers of fabric. In this case, the plastic part will be inside the "pocket".
  • We mark the middle of the circle and the visor.
  • We put a peak between two blanks of a strip.
  • We combine marks.
  • We sew a peg and a peak.
  • We cut the corners of the allowances.
  • Sew on the cap to the top of the cap, for this we sew it between the details of the cap and lining.

Important! There are many ways to assemble fashionable women's caps, here it is the easiest for beginners.

  • Sew the finished button to the top, or we fit a piece of cardboard with the main fabric. Be sure to grab the lining fabric with a few stitches to prevent it from bristling.
  • Try on.

We advise you to sew the first cap out of inexpensive material in order to make all the changes to the pattern and “fill your hand”. But then, you can regularly update your wardrobe with new hats, without spending a lot of money.
