Re: Hat Backs Help Please
Had the same problem. Try using , as suggested , the smallest hoop. Mine is 11cm. Sorry I dont know in inches. To help with the hooping take a piece of wood about a foot long and a little narrower than the hoop, clamp or screw half of it to a bench. 6 inches sticking out. Take the hoops outer ring and cut a hole in a piece of cardboard so the ring will fit snugly inside it. Tape this to the sticking out piece of the wood. Now you have made a mini hoopmaster for cap backs, sleeves, and tube items. The cap back will now fit around the ring and you can hoop it without it moving. Not easy to describe making something but it works.
Good luck.
Earl.
