If you absolutely must remove the logo, I would suggest going at it from the inside of the hat. If you just slice the stitches down the middle, it turns them into individual loops. Once that is done, you should be able to pull the threads out through the front with relative ease. I am assuming the embroidered logo is the same as any other embroidery (like a name) you wish to remove. This method also reduces the chances of messing up the hat itself (snags, etc.).
@piper23817 жыл бұрын
I don't know about the inside because there's fabric covering it (linen), and since it's a hat I don't want to distort the shape

I would use a seam ripper instead of a knife and also I would work on the inside of the hat rather than the outside, so any pilling will not be visible when the hat is worn. Also putting a little water on the holes from the stitching will help the holes close up a little bit.
