{"product_id":"chef-hat","title":"Chef Hat Embroidery Design, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eIts the toque, the classic tall chefs hat, drawn tilted on its side so the dome faces left and the curved band sweeps across the bottom right. The dome section is filled white with pale ice-blue shadowing across the top and left edge to give it that rounded three-dimensional shape. Then theres a cluster of curly detail lines drawn onto the pleated band area that sits between the dome and the hat base, and those curls are what actually make it read as a toque and not just a white blob.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree colors, two color changes. White goes in first for the main body fill, then the icy teal comes in for the shadow and pleat detail zones, and black finishes the whole outline and the curly interior lines. The sequencing is clean so you wont lose your place mid-stitch. At the 8 inch size youre looking at just over 43,000 stitches which is a solid dense fill, at 2 inches it runs lean at around 6,500. I hear from buyers about this regularly from culinary schools and home bakers, and one culinary college ordered a full run of aprons with the five inch version last spring that held up perfectly through commercial washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStitch it on a dark navy or charcoal cotton and the white dome really pops. The pale teal shadow kind of merges with the white fill on very dark backgrounds, which looks intentional and good. Apply cutaway on twill or canvas since those satin fills sit heavy and the fabric needs support right through to the last stitch. Iron your fabric completely flat before hooping so those lower satin runs dont distort. Skip light pastel fabrics because the pale body fill disappears and the whole design just reads as black outline.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46185810428054,"sku":null,"price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ChefHatEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1768708495","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/chef-hat","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
