But let’s be totally real — $40 on a glorified baseball cap? Yeah, we don’t all have that kind of cash to spend. So here’s the simplest possible DIY for making your very own custom hat.
You’ll also need about 20 minutes, but the concept of time isn’t as easy to photograph.
THE CHOICE IS YOURS.
You’ll also need a safety pin or two, and a needle and thread. Your needle should be sharp — so no stump-nosed embroidery needles — but also sturdy. Patches can be hard to poke through.
Thread color is up to you. I picked black, because it matches, and it’s all I had.
Friends, just because you CAN do a thing does not mean you SHOULD. You will — I hope — be wearing your hat a lot. If you only use a few stitches, odds are your beloved patch will fall off, and THEN where will you be?
