Baby hat
Fleece is very good in that it does not require edge treatment, and, accordingly, it is easy to cut and sew. The pattern of a children's cap made of fleece can be made according to the template below. It is also suitable for other material, for example, knitwear, from which it is good to make an "internal helmet", worn under the main hat. If you use a stretching material, then the side part of the cap, which should be two, you can cut a single, so as not to make extra fasteners on the neck.
As for the fleece, you need to cut the extreme right detail in one copy, and the other two in pairs, although a narrow strip of face trim can be made of a single, but longer length. When you will sew the side elements with the center, it’s good to decorate the cap with additional details that need to be sewn into the seam. Using this method, ears of various animals are usually made so that the cap resembles the head of a particular animal. This part is easy to make just in the form of a triangle. Accordingly, to make a pair of ears you will need to carve four parts of the same color or two different parts, for example, from a dark brown fleece for the outside of the ear and from light or pale pink for the inside. For the convenience of further work, you can already perform workpieces with allowance for seam allowances.

Ears are not difficult to perform in one piece with him.
A fleece hat-helmet (pattern from the illustration above) can also be decorated with additional details at your discretion. It is easy to sew ears into the seams between the petals, as in the following photo. Sashes made of the same material or a beautiful decorative button will look beautiful.

- Take a sheet of thin paper, the length of which is equal to the circumference of the head, and the width to the height of the cap, plus consider the bend if you plan to make it large.
- Fold a sheet of paper with an accordion in such a way that you end up with the right number of layers, depending on the number of “petals” of the top of the headgear you have chosen. The example shows a variant with four elements.
- On the first layer to you, draw a symmetrical detail of the "petal", or rather, its upper part.
