The famous actress Ekaterina Volkova came up with this headdress and created a brand in her name, which is called Wolka.
If you list all the advantages of the Wolf's hood, you'll get an impressive list. Here are just a few of the most important ones, in our opinion:
This is how Catherine herself talks about her hood.

The women's headdress created by Ekaterina Volkova is suitable in size for fashionistas of all ages.
Autumn items are made from thinner but warm fabrics. For the winter, you can take fleece or wool, or better yet, two types of material. The collection includes both casual and dressy models.

However, if there is no opportunity to please yourself with such a new thing from the manufacturer, but you have cutting and sewing skills, then you can try to reproduce the hood yourself. Fortunately, there is already a ready-made pattern for the Wolf’s hood (it is given in one size, taking into account the fact that the hood scarf is produced in one size and is easily “adjusted” to the head circumference of the person who will wear it).

Let's consider several options for the pattern of this model.

The first version of the Wolf hood pattern

All dimensions of this pattern are given in centimeters. When cutting, you need to add seam allowances.

It is worth considering that the Wolka model is double-sided - that is, it has an outer and an inner side, which means that the side parts must be in 4 copies.

The loop for the fastener must be inserted into the seam of the right half of the hood. Decide how to position the button when trying on the finished item.

Second version of the Wolf's headdress

This pattern consists of three parts: two sides and a back. We do the tuck at will.

For each layer you need to cut out 1 insert piece and 2 side pieces. The seams need not be processed, since finished product they will not be visible. This is convenient for those who do not have an overlocker or a machine with a zigzag stitch. Sew the loop in immediately right side before turning the product inside out, but it is better to sew on the button after trying it on. This will allow you to adjust the tension and placement of the hood on your head.

The hat using this pattern will be more voluminous.

Third version of the pattern

All dimensions on the pattern are indicated in centimeters. Seam allowances are not taken into account.

Wolka has an inner and outer side, so there will be four side parts and two stripes. As you can see in the video, both sides of the hood are made of different materials. It depends on your desire. They may be different, or they may be the same. Double-sided Wolka has more options use.

Ekaterina Volkova herself says that her scarf-hood so versatile that it can suit any look, season and weather, and it’s impossible to argue with that. Therefore, what material to sew the halves of your Wolf from is up to you, in accordance with your wishes and needs. This could be an easy option for summer evening made of silk and lace, or maybe insulated winter option from fleece or even fur.

Save so you don't lose.

We want to tell you about a new trend that I came up with famous actress theater and cinema Ekaterina Volkova. And offer ready-made pattern fashionable headdress.

The actress opened a project to launch a brand fashion accessories WOLKA, having collected about 1.5 million rubles through crowdfunding. I won't go into the stunning economic details of this news. I found the very idea of ​​Catherine interesting. As she put it, it’s an idea from the category “everything ingenious is simple.”

One day, Catherine, having unfastened the hood from her coat at her mother’s request, tried it on as a separate headdress. I looked in the mirror, adjusted this “cap” on my head a little, and... an idea was born. The idea of ​​creating a new headdress. The first person who accepted this idea was her little daughter, who immediately ran up to her mother and said “I want one for myself too.”

It was 2 years ago. Catherine did not know how to sew or cut. Therefore, I decided to turn to designers to bring this idea to life. But due to her workload with her creative plans, everyone she turned to refused to help. Then the actress herself became a designer and organized trademark WOLKA. And the headdress itself is called a wolf.

There are a lot of options for wolves to suit every taste, says Ekaterina. This is a different combination of different textures - lace with wool, lace with silk, wool and silk,... Based on this, there may be different kinds wolves for different seasons. Festive wolves - lace or silk, for example, for a wedding. Fleece wolf hats for children and even men. Unisex wolves, paired with jeans made of textured missoni fabric.

Watch how she talks about it herself:

We were impressed by this story. We immediately remembered the patterns simple hoods. A little finishing touches and you can start sewing. Who is with us, join us! We offer this pattern.

It consists of three parts: two side and one back. There is one pattern for all sizes, fortunately everyone’s head sizes are approximately the same. We do the tuck at will. We insert the loop into the seam of the right half of the wolf (we will now call it that). The location of the button is determined after the product is ready.

  • Hello, dear blog readers. I hope you have missed our articles on the topic of leisure and hobbies a little. Today I want to talk about hats again. In the last article we talked, and today I want to introduce you to a new trend among hats.

    Communicating with friends and acquaintances, I came to the conclusion that not all women like the usual hats, and there are many reasons that do not allow them to wear them in everyday life. For example, fear of ruining your hair, headaches when wearing it, or lack of choice when purchasing. What to do?

    Quite unexpectedly, I came across a very interesting model of headdress, which has already become a trend in Russia. And I immediately thought that this version of the headdress would definitely be useful and would be liked by many.

    The famous actress Ekaterina Volkova came up with this headdress and created a brand in her name, which is called Wolka. If you are not yet familiar with him, then this will be a pleasant surprise for you.

    If you list all the advantages of the Wolf's hood, you'll get an impressive list. Here are just a few of the most important ones, in my opinion:

    • unusual and unique headdress
    • emphasizes femininity
    • easy to put on, you can put it around your neck without taking it off, for example, indoors
    • individual unique design for each model
    • Surely no one will have something like this
    • goes well with dresses and sporty ones with style
    • your hair doesn't get damaged like hats do
    • in cold weather it provides shelter from the wind

    This is how Catherine herself talks about her hood.

    For those who wish, but are not ready to purchase the famous Wolka hood from the author, I suggest reading this article to the end. I thought that some of you would probably want to sew such a hood with your own hands. So buy it beautiful fabric and sew a new fashionable warm headdress for yourself. The pattern of the model is universal for all sizes. Some cutting, sewing and design skills will of course be needed.

    When sewing my hood, I used the pattern below. The pattern seemed close to the original to me.

    I think for those who sew it will not be difficult to understand the sewing technology. I would like to note that the hood is double-sided, which means the details are cut out in 2 copies from different fabrics.

    For each layer you need to cut out 1 insert piece and 2 side pieces. The seams do not need to be processed, as they will not be visible in the finished product. This is convenient for those who do not have an overlocker or a machine with a zigzag stitch.

    The only thing I would like to add on my own. Sew the loop immediately on the right side before turning the product inside out, but I recommend sewing on the button after trying it on. This will allow you to adjust the tension and placement of the hood on your head.

    What fabrics should I use to sew a hood?

    There are many options for using different textures and for every taste. Lace with wool, knitwear, silk, and fleece look great. I recommend choosing fabric for sewing a hood based on what time of year and for what occasion you plan to wear it.

    For example, a hood for a wedding can be made of lace, silk, or fine knitwear. For winter and sports, options with wool, fleece, thick knitwear, in combination with each other, as well as with the same lace, are perfect. One way or another, the choice of companion fabric will always depend on your personal preferences and capabilities.

    I present to you my version of a sewn hood. I hope you appreciate my first experience in sewing. To test the hood I used thick black fleece and fine knitwear above. The hood is quite warm and comfortable to wear. Next time I plan to choose wool knitted fabric and lace. I want to sew something more delicate and lighter.

    For ease of perception, I have prepared a small table of the essentials for sewing a hood:

    for one hood it takes 2 pieces of fabric of different textures 50 cm with a width of 100 cm) Total 1 m per 1 m of fabric.
