On a second look, my fabric isn't corduroy at all, it's just velvet, so I can cut at 45° to the fabric weave like Sachi suggests in the Newsboy Cap pattern and it won't look strange.

Ironing the lightweight green corduroy for my first try at the Sachi's Studio Newsboy Cap pattern. I don't know how I feel about the recommendation to use interfacing but it probably does want something to stiffen and thicken it a bit.
