You might want to talk with them before proceeding. Wild rabbit pelts have rather thin leather and the fur is not very durable. Might be an expensive hat that won’t wear very well.

Don and Brenda will give you good advise about making a rabbit hat.

I'd strongly recommend against rabbit, It sheds really bad and has very weak leather.
