  • I finally got started on my Historic Halloween Costume based on costumes from Weldon's Fancy Dress Catalog for the #historichalloween2020 challenge.
    This challenge has been hosted by @Lady Rebecca Fashions and @Kirilee Cosplay , and I will link their playlists below.
    For this challenge, I am making a costume that looks like a golf bag. In the Spring and Summer, I work part-time on the grounds crew at a local golf course, and when I saw the inspiration picture for this costume I knew I had to make it!
    Life sort of got away from me, and I started on this costume late (the day before Halloween, actually). I am still going to finish it because it's too good not to.
    Today's video is about creating the Tam Hat that is portion of the costume.
    The earliest forms of these caps, known as a blue bonnet from their typical color, were made by bonnet-makers in Scotland. At the end of the sixteenth century, it was said that the Scottish caps were the normal fashion of men and servants, and they remained so throughout the seventeenth century.
    Before the introduction of inexpensive synthetic dyes in the mid-19th century, the Scottish knitted bonnet was made only in colours easily available from natural dyes, particularly woad or indigo.

    This is a great tutorial -- clear, easy to follow. I used it to make a tam out of blue stretch velvet for my early 1800's costume. It looks great! Since the velvet is pretty floppy (made the hat look a bit like a droopy pancake on my head), I stuffed it with some light quilt batting to make it puff up a little. I'd post a photo but I don't think I'm allowed to.

    Great tutorial! Very clear to follow! What would you recommend for the band if your fabric doesn’t have stretch?

      The band isn't extremely tight, so you may be able to get away with cutting it on the bias of the fabric. Otherwise, I'm not sure what I would use - maybe a rib knit of some sort?

    how long is the piece of string when tracing for the smaller circle?

      I don't remember the exact measurement, but the small circle was the same as my head circumference.
