Stiffy
It is not necessary to adjust your monitor. The image shown is rated PG13. Now that I have your attention…
How could a post with this title miss? I mean come on…Stiffy? “Product?” you say. Yes. A product. For real. Not from Hustler.![]()
This could quite possibly be the solution to my hat problem. I received lots of good ideas about what I could do with the hat. All of them, frankly easier and probably more sensible than using Stiffy. However, I am still determined to make this hat work.
There were other products with less “scandalous” names but I did choose this one for a reason (not just because it’s called Stiffy).
a) It’s water soluble. If this doesn’t work, I can just wash the hat and move on to plan b.
b) a.1) Related to a: I am a big clutz and likely to spill things. Water soluble is not just convenient in my case, but a necessity.
Stiffy process:
1. Prep area.![]()
2. Place hat in bowl.![]()
3. Pour on Stiffy and work into fabric. ![]()
4. Shape and leave to dry. ![]()
5. Pour a glass of wine and wait for hat to dry. Repeat as necessary.

That’s quite a name! Hope the hat works out.
Too funny! I’m sue every girl should have a can of Stiffy around:happydance:
I did write the pattern as I knit it. It needs some fiddling, but I will post it when it works:knit:
Cheryl,
thanks for the comment. I’d be happy to send you the recipe…I don’t think your comment left your email addy, tho, and I can’t find one on your site. let me know?
Stiffy — that is too funny! It must be a strange thing to order over the phone. If Stiffy is water soluble, then what happens if the hat gets wet? Do you need to go through the process all over again?
With a name like Stiffy, it has to be good…:knitguy:
I couldn’t find an email addy anywhere on your site, so here I am… Many thanks for the lovely compliment on my socks!
lol! Too funny! I hope that it works for you. Cute hat! Thanks for stopping by my blog. :knitting:
Well did it work?
Will it work on *other* things that need stiffening???
