25.1. Hooping A Cap

The process for hooping a cap on the Wide Angle Cap Frame (WACF) is the same for almost
any type of cap or visor you are hooping.
You will want to have the cap gauge installed on a sturdy surface to start.
Preparing the Cap
Preparing the cap before it is hooped will help the sew quality and ease the hooping process.
To prepare the cap,
1. Remove any cardboard from the inside of the cap.
2. Straighten the bill as best you can. It can be reshaped after the embroidery is complete.
3. Pull the sweatband to the outside of the cap. Near the back of the cap, the sweatband may be sewn
into the cap. At this point, it may need to be folded a bit to fit in the frame.
