Making a boiled wool hat from leftover fabric

I made a hat with the leftover fabric from my boiled wool jacket.

I chose a plate that was about the size I wanted the crown and cut out a circle. Then I measured a length of fabric that went around my head, but I made it a bit deeper than I wanted the hat so I could add some tucks, and of course the seam allowance.
After joining the seam 3 rows of pin tucks were stitched , the bottom one became the hem because when I tried it around my head it looked right. My original plan was to add a band but I like it as it is.

The crown was pinned, first dividing into quarters, then dividing again and again to deal with the ease, then stitched in place.

Finally a steam pressing for a good looking finish.
This hat could easily be dressed up with a flourish in the form of a felt flower, or leaves, a brooch or some feathers etc.
