The send method of the Http package gives you the possibility to create and send a custom request. For example, a post request could be something like

postRequest : Request
postRequest =
    { verb = "POST"
    , headers =
        [ ("Origin", "http://elm-lang.org")
        , ("Access-Control-Request-Method", "POST")
        , ("Access-Control-Request-Headers", "X-Custom-Header")
        ]
    , url = "http://example.com/hats"
    , body = empty
    }

You can then create the Task that represent the request using the send function like

send defaultSettings postRequest
