Woolen Acorn

This medieval style acorn hat is made of wool, lined with linen and sewn in to shape.

.

Acorn hats in addition to being acorn-shaped, have a little pip of fabric at the top that in the case of acorn hat probably represent the stalk or possibly the remains of the style.

The pip also occurs through the felting process if this were a felted, rather sewn acorn hat.

Looking at the pictures I think this hat needs more air time or ironing, its been crushed in the bottom of bag too long and never seem to see the light of day.

I'm not sure why I'm pulling a odd face, some hats make me do this.

Below I'm studying the complexity of turning something inside out or outside in or perhaps outside out since both sides are the outside of the hat, who knows.

Acorn hats appeared mainly in the late 15th Century although they existed before and after this period.

The style of these hats can vary considerable both in hight and style, some are skull tight, some are comedy tall, this one fall in between.

Medieval Felt Hat

This tall acorn style felt hat is of excellent quality purchased from a Medieval market in the UK and made in Poland.

A good hat to sleep in it would seem.

Its since become the hat of Merlin and where he stores his cakes. 

Yes I do keep cakes in the hat
