DIRECTIONS:
- For hat one size fits most. Cut one panel of fleece, 15"x 25". Fold in half to 15" (H of hat w/fringe) x 12 1/2" (W of hat with no sew braid in back). Place edge of tape 1 1/2" in from 15" side (opposite from folded side) and 3" in from one 12 1/2" side. Cut out corner of fleece where tape overlaps, 1 1/2"x 3" corner. Remove tape on sides of cutout.
- Mark dots on tape starting at corner cutout, every 1" on 15" side, every 3/4" on 12 1/2" side. Cut from edges of fleece toward marks just to edge of tape. Fold each 1" W tab in half toward tape line. Cut a small 3/8" slit in center of tab. Repeat for all 1" tabs. Remove tape.
- Insert one end of an opened paper clip through the slit in both layers of the bottom edge fringe strip. Slide the hook of the paper clip through the cut through the next fringe slit and pull the second fringe through the first. The hook of the paper clip should be hooked in the second fringe strip. Continue up through the top 1" tab. Pull one side of top fringe through the last 1" tab. Double knot fringe with opposite side fringe to hold the back of hat secure. Bundle the top fringe. Take the second pair of top fringe strips, next to the back weave, and wrap around the base of the top fringe. Double knot to secure.
- Double fold the bottom edge of the hat.

fleece hat
a little confusing yes, take it slow and step by step. the paperclip is used to weave a few of the "fringe" into the band around the hat right under the "fringe"

Horrible Instructions
I've sewed for nearly 70 years and can't follow these instructions. At least add pictures. Or find someone who can write instructions.

bad instructions
These instructions make this easy hat far complicated than needs to be. I make these hats off from youtube ( 1 hour fabulous fleece hat ) and it is so easy to do. Maybe you can watch the video and make one explaining your written instructions. Can't figure this out !

gimmick
This is another gimmick by Joanns. Instead of just offering good prices they make you play the gotcha game.

Video
It would be nice to have a video along with the instructions. Instructions are hard to follow and it may make sense by watching a video

Just don't understand the instructions. Very confusing and didn't get why you need the paper clip

Instructions need to more explicit!
I have sewn for years and am an accomplished seamstress. I have read the instructions over and over again for this no sew fleece hat and still cannot figure out why I cannot get my hat to close or to even look like a hat. In my modest opinion, the instructions need to be much more explicit.
