What style hat? There are plenty of patterns and how to books. Some easy, some much more complicated.

I picked up a pattern for my fur hat at www.glacierwear.com. They had a couple different style hat patterns.

My wife, son and I just got our hats back. Two beaver and a coon hats from Wildthings in south west WI. It is the warmest hat I own. They did a great job. The beaver and coon were ones we trapped. 608-625-4181

So I looked at the website( wildthings fur) and saw prices for finished products. Is there a price break for making stuff with the trappers fur?

The Glacier wear website lays all this out.

Yes, there is discount pricing for using your own fur. It is not listed on their website. It says to call for pricing.

Possibly too many factors involved to post pricing on the web site.

Maybe they just don't want to encourage this part of the business? It's problematic.
