Cutting the hat open...
...and removing the primary (foam) resist.
Making decorative slits...
...in the front of the hat...
...and widening them slightly...
...with a fingertip.
Snipping a small hole in the 'hat lining'...
...and removing the bubble wrap resist.
Felting continues...
...as the project is worked in various orientations...
...for even shrinkage.
We're nearly there!
Next time: all of the finished hats from our workshop!
