There is no pattern for the hats, the idea belongs to a designer in Japan and out of respect I can not give details, sorry.
so in 24 hours I did it! I woven two caps. these are all cotton and mix rayon yarns. I wound the warp yesterday afternoon, and sleyed the reed and threaded 1/2 the heddles. This morning I jumped out of bed and ran to the loom where I finished threading the heddles then beamed on and wove my first hat. Braked for lunch then started on the 2nd hat cap. The 2nd darker one is my winter solstice cap. Finished it by 3:30 pm. today loaded the photos and here they are, . The first cap , the brighter one, has shorter braided tassels. I like the longer ones on the second cap better, but I am going to break out the beads and add them to the shorter tassels to add length and sparkle.
So cool! Cannot for the life of me figure out how you assembled them.

Very clever use of the fabric! I'm going to try to make one, too. You seamed, gathered on the selvedge, and then added braids?
