Sewed these up last weekend. The big one is fur lined with an old pair or carhartts for the shell and the little pompom one is fleece for my daughter. I put the mitts in because they all came from the same beaver. Gonna make one for my son this week.

Modified from secrets of Eskimo skin sewing. I taper the piece in the back so when it's flipped up it sits tight on the back. The smaller one I just messed around with until it fit. Kids heads are a little different plus I wanted to keep the fur out of her eyes.

I won a beaver hat in a raffle from the UP Trappers Assn. With the weather we have been getting I wear it a lot. Get compliments every time I wear it to town, thank You U.P. Trappers.

My son said he wanted one with the face on but now it scares him to much to put it on. Poor guy.
I might pull it apart and try to redo it with the face off or give it away. I'm halfway through a bomber hat that he might like more.

Those look great, nice work!


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

yes, all brain tanned and smoked. makes it a little more challenging to work with than a commercial tan but it turns out good enough for me and a lot cheaper.!
