I have been noticing online over the last few months that everyone out there is making and selling Kufi hats. I eagerly went on the search for this pattern and was amazed at what I found. I was shocked to find that the majority of people selling Kufi hats are not actually making themselves. These hats can be ordered online for a very low price and are then being advertised and sold as a handmade product. In my opinion, something that is manufactured by a machine is not handmade and it made me a little mad that I am working hard to create authentic handmade products and selling them as such, while other people are finding products overseas manufactured on a machine and selling them as a handmade product. Now, I do not fault anyone for trying to sell these hats and to make a profit, if you can do that; great. What does upset me is that they are being advertised as handmade when in fact they are not.
I have since found a pattern for a Kufi hat and I will be selling those hats on my site and I can assure my customers that when I advertise something as handmade, it is in fact 100 % handmade. Check back for the latest pictures of my Kufi hats.
