How to make a hat with your own hands
The Dunno hat is the most difficult to make. Needlewomen distinguish 2 most common options:
- Make a headdress from thick paper or cardboard.
- Sew a hat from fabric and padding (non-woven or padding polyester).

The easiest way to make Dunno's headdress is from a flat sheet of whatman paper (or thick wallpaper).
First of all, you need to measure the circumference of the child’s head so that the hat fits him. After this, a pattern for the brim of the hat is drawn on whatman paper. It represents two circles. The inner one corresponds to the size of the head, and the outer one corresponds to the outer size of the hat brim.
The top of the hat is a cone. When it is ready, it needs to be attached to the fields using glue. The finished hat can be painted with gouache or covered with satin blue fabric. An accessory covered with textiles looks more solid and festive.
It is appropriate to complement the Dunno hat with a tassel made of thread or corrugated paper. You can also add hair cut out from yellow paper. They are glued to the inside of the fields. With them, the image of a fairy-tale hero will be even more recognizable.

DIY Dunno tie
Before you sew or make a tie, you should look for this accessory in your grandfather's chest. During the dude period, green was in fashion. If you don’t have the tie you need, it’s very easy to sew one. 2 identical parts are cut out from bright green fabric. They are then sewn inside out and turned inside out.
In addition to regular fabric, you can use felt, painted Whatman paper or thick cardboard. You can secure the tie around your neck with a hat (thin) elastic band or use a satin ribbon.
You must involve your child in making a paper tie. A child at any age will definitely enjoy coloring whatman paper with bright green gouache. He will treat such an accessory with care, since he participated in its creation. In addition, this is a great opportunity to practice drawing.
It’s not that difficult to make a Dunno costume with your own hands, but the child will definitely feel confident in such a unique image. And joint creativity will help to establish contact and develop a sense of taste in the offspring. In addition, the costumes of heroes from fairy tales allow you to refresh your memories of the works and discuss the character of the characters and their actions.
