Crazy hat with earflaps! With glow in the dark highlights!

Step 9Attaching Lining to Shell

Attaching Lining to Shell
Pin your front flap piece to your shell, making sure that is is attached to the hat band via the raw edge on the flap piece, between the ear flap section, and with the fur facing out. Stitch this piece on, but realize that there will be a raw edge, since you are just laying the front flap piece on top of the shell, instead of actually creating a finished edge.

Then, turn both the lining and shell inside out, and with right sides together, pin the bottom edge of the hat together (image 1). This means that your ear flap edges and hat band section (the one with the front flap) will have lining pinned to them.
Before stitching this, insert a piece of yarn into the hat at the bottom of each ear flap (sandwiched between the shell and lining), in order to form ties for your hat. Most of the length of these yarn ties should not be visible from the outside of the hat as it currently stands (which is inside out!).

After this addition, stitch the bottom edge of the hat, making sure to go over the yarn areas a few times in order for them to remain solid.
