Where have I been for the past year? The last post I wrote was on May 19, 2024. I was undergoing fireman training and renovating our kitchen while crafting custom hats. I can probably add more events that were going on around me at the same time that just piled up on the already high stress level.
Regardless, 2024 was a great year. The business grew by 30% compared with previous year and 2025 is already ahead with another 25% vs 2024. Much of the success has to do with the new studio space and our home. The move from the city was not only a great lift for our wellbeing but also a huge help in growing the business by adding on floor space for new machines and ways to improve the efficiency of the business.
The space can even hold employees now, additional people crafting hats. That would be amazing but in it self is another mountain to climb. Hiring in Sweden is expensive but I am sure I could provide a much better working environment than many other companies out there. Who wouldn’t want to be creative and just step out in nature for a much-needed break before continuing on crafting?
One of the more anticipated changes I made to Hufvud in 2024 was to add handwoven straw hats. Hufvud is able to craft any style that I have on the website into a straw hat. That has been much appreciated in the hat community because it is missing from the market. Most straw hats you see today are not handwoven straw and they don’t have the height or brim width that one might desire. I am definitely one of them looking for a better-looking straw hat to wear this summer. I have great plans for the straw as I love working with this material from Ecuador. Imagine various colors and styles blended together in a symphony of colors.
I know that the website is in need of an update. Photos are missing, more details for the custom form and the addition of straw hats embedded in the custom form. All in due time. Sometimes customers think there is an entire team behind Hufvud crafting, handling IT, an HR department, and an accounting team. Sadly no, it is just me. I do have an outsourced accounting team so that part is taken care of.
Another update which I would like to mention is the addition of a new Adventure Fedora. Western Beaver Twenty all weather hat that is meant to be with you on your outdoor adventure. Western weight and stiffness that handles anything your throw at it. New colors will be available later this year and more updates to come.
I am happy to be back writing posts and sharing photos with you! Thanks Morgan for the encouragement, it means a lot.
There has emerged a lot of fraudulent sites using Hufvud hat photos to sell fake hats out there. There is not much I can do about it other than embedding more Hufvud logos in the background. Rest assured, Hufvud hats is only sold on Hufvud.com and not through any other third party site. I am not in any brick and mortar store. I appreciate all of you who report the posts with fake hat sales as it is difficult to keep up with and it makes me sad to see customers being tricked to fund these criminals.
Thank you very much for following my craft, placing orders, purchasing ready made hats direct from the website. Words of encouragements are always helpful. Send me an email and strike a conversation regarding hats. I appreciate all of it! Until next time, have a wonderful Sunday!

Imagine becoming vastly wealthy overnight. Being a winner of a multi-million-dollar lottery is certainly a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Laura Benson from Chicopee, Massachusetts, the famous PowerBall lottery winner of $758 million (£591m) in 2017. I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Dr Isa, and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, I also want to encourage all those who need help to try their luck with Dr. Isa, who helped me win the lottery. I believe you’re still going to win with his help, too, just like he did for me. WhatsApp: +2347046030096 Email: drisaspellcaster@gmail.com Website: https://drisaspellcaster.wixsite.com/dr-isa
Elon Musk Scammed Me $250K – Cancer Mom Almost Lost Everything
Stage 4 breast cancer, fighting for my 2 little girls. Saved $250K for treatments & their future. Fake “Elon Musk Tesla team” on X DM’d me: private charity giveaway for cancer moms, 30% monthly returns on Tesla-linked crypto. Fake screenshots, voice clip, everything looked real. I sent it all thinking it was God’s miracle. Gone in hours. Account deleted. Lay in hospital bed at 3am crying so hard I couldn’t breathe—felt like I just took food & hope from my babies while dying. Found JetWebHackers in despair. They traced the wallets, recovered EVERY CENT in weeks. Money back… held my girls sobbing happy tears for once. They gave a dying mom her fight back. If fake Elon/Tesla scammed you too, contact them NOW. Real angels support@jetwebhackers.com (mailto:support@jetwebhackers.com)WhatsApp: +1 (260) 228-9998

A breach of my cyber privacy led to the loss of my digital assets, including Bitcoin valued at over $120,000. Hackers were able to clone my email and gain access to my seed phrase, which they used to drain my assets. The experience was infuriating and overwhelming.
Fortunately, a friend referred me to Morphohack Cyber Service, a data and funds recovery firm. Their team successfully helped me recover every dollar and also assisted in securing my digital environment against future threats. Their professionalism and expertise were truly impressive.
I highly recommend Morphohack Cyber Service to anyone facing similar issues. They specialize in recovering crypto, Bitcoin, private data, hacked accounts, and lost files. You can contact them safely via email for any inquiries. (Morphohack@cyberservices.com)
