Kit for a Tudor woman's lettice cap
Tudor Tailor exclusive!

- Brushed cotton for lining
- Millinery wire for edge of cap

I received my kit in record time (only 9 days after I placed my order) and I can't say enough nice things about the quality of the materials. I entirely recommend this cap kit! It's so distinctly Tudor yet so wonderfully weird ❤️
Such a great hat.. I get so many compliments at Festivals.
I'm having a lot of fun making up this kit!! The materials are wonderful to work with and the pattern is very clear.
We haven't made this hat yet, but the instructions are clear and the supplies provided are of the highest quality and clearly sufficient in quantity for the product. I am particularly pleased with the quality of the fur. It is one of the best fake furs I have ever seen! I definitely recommend this kit.
