Want to throw my hat hoop out the window

[sweetharsh]

I have watched every video available and my hats still look like garbage. I've wasted easily $100 on hats that have to be thrown away.
Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

Conventional Cap Frame or Wide Angle?

Most find CCF easier for beginners.

Are you digitizing for hats specifically?

Slowing the machine to 850?

Sharp needles?

Most issues with hats are related to incorrect hooping.
