🎁 Buying as a gift?
To send the right hat block, you’ll need to know the recipient’s head size. Simply measure around the head where a sweatband would sit (in cm or inches). If the size is exact to my block sizes that's great, but if you are between e.g. a small and medium hat block, then buy the small - I will show you in the instructions how to make the block the right size.
✨ If you’d rather keep the surprise, a gift voucher is the perfect alternative – letting your loved one choose their own size.
