Learning how to Wet Felt a MEDIEVAL HAT - FIRST TRY GOOD ?!?!?!?!

[@Dzienio]

Best tutorial of hat felting. I just ended felting mine, it worked… but never again- thats hard, physical and repetetive work.

[@mattl3729]

Wunderbar! What a cool video- I had no idea felt hats could be made that way and it really does look like a fun project to try. It turned out very nicely too. Gratuliere!

Looks like a ton of work, but the result was So Satisfying! While I am usually energized to try these things after watching your videos, I don't think I'll tackle this one. 🤣 Thank you for sharing.

Such a brilliant result! Made me laugh when I saw this video come up as I’m currently planning to make a video about felting a hat! You did a great job considering it was your first time, very inspiring!

[@JaraSchatz]

I love how you stay awake the whole night to finish this with us 😊 Looks Great! You are really talented and I also laughed and learned a lot during your videos 😄

I love this, hat making has always seemed intimidating, but with your video I think I could tackle it

[@danielrichter1733]

Hey love your videos. I make medieval wet felted hats, and would like to say that yours looks great❤ i don’t bother with so many layers. I usually only use two on each side of the resist and then i’ll ad one more just for the brim if i want different colour. 🙂

This is a very cool video! Thanks for showing the whole process starting with the insoles ❤

Спасибо за видео! :D

Loved this video, and the hat looks fantastic! Do you know what time period the style you made the hat in is used for? I'd love to wear one at my medieval reenactments

[@TheShieldery]

Thanks! This kind of hat is called Bycocket and was worn by men and women in Western Europe from the 13th to the 16th century :) . The specific medieval paintings in the video are from the Manuscript "BL Yates Thompson 13 The Taymouth Hours", dating between 1325-1350 . Here is the link to those pictures and some other sources: manuscriptminiatures.com/search?tag=73#results

@TheShieldery Thank you for the sources and info! I might *just* be able to get away with it, since my core period ends in 1265 :)

bisschen breit noch, but very nice! makes me almost believe I could do it

[@widzon5747]

Спасибо, братан, круто вышло - пользуюсь твоими видео. На русском ютубе ничего такого нету:(

[@MyTitan101]

is the hat a bit loose?

[@TheShieldery]

Mayby a really tiny bit. I'd say that's a standart variation of half a centimeter in circumference. It feels excellent though. I think I'll add an inner hat band, caus it gets itchy on the forehead when I wear it over a longer time. But that could mayby make it to small. I guess I will test the Hat as it is over the next season and make a decision then. When I wear my thin guggel underneath it's allready a tiiiiny bit to small.

@@TheShieldery fair enough

[@JD-yz9kr]

How much does the hat weigh?

[@TheShieldery]

270g :)

[@JD-yz9kr]

@@TheShieldery Thanks ! Much appreciated. Loved your fearless approach. Great outcome .

[@bewilderbeastie8899]

I wonder if this could be needle felted...

[@TheShieldery]

Could? Probably. But it would Take even longer and I am Not Sure how water resistent it would be. The Fiber Connection would Most likely vary more and youd have "pores" Set by the needle holes. Mayby the lanilin would correct that, but No idea....
