🧙 Pro Tips for a Sturdy Witch Hat Brim
- Use a smaller hook size for the brim than you did for the cone – this keeps the stitches tighter and prevents curling.
- Slip in thin wire or floral wire around the final round of the brim before closing. This gives structure while still allowing it to bend slightly.
- For a softer option, crochet two identical brims and sandwich a piece of plastic canvas, cardboard, or cut craft foam in between, then sew them together.
- Block the brim with steam (hold it over steam for a few seconds, then press flat with a cloth until dry) to help it lay evenly.
These tricks ensure your witch hat brim stays crisp, flat, and just as magical as the one in the photo. 🎩✨
