Crochet Floppy Sun Hat
I rushed to get this one done because the ☀️ is here for the #summer!! This is made with #raffia and comes together in a day. Time to make something for yourself now… ????! My Crochet Floopy Sun Hat is fairly simple to make once you get used to working with raffia. I’ll be honest, it took me a bit longer than expected to get comfortable with the paper texture and find a way to wrap it around my fingers easily. But stick with it, it’s so worth every minute!
- 3.5mm crochet hook
- 2 balls of Raffia (I used this “yarn” in natural)
Notes:
This hat is worked in the round starting from the top down and always in the back of each stitch.
Side note: Yashi is an unusual yarn which has lots of possibilities. It takes its inspiration from the Japanese art of paper folding, and has a durable, papery texture. Made of raffia and harvested from Raffia palm trees in Africa, this yarn will be ideal for making bags, hats, and home textiles.
UPDATE November 2024:
I hope that you’re enjoying your current knitting projects. It has been such a pleasure sharing my patterns with you and seeing your creativity bring them to life.
After much thought, I have made the difficult decision to no longer offer my patterns for free. This was not an easy choice—designing and sharing these patterns has always been a passion of mine and a way to connect with this amazing community.
However, the time, effort, and resources required to create, test, and perfect each pattern are significant. To continue bringing you high-quality, unique designs and to support the sustainability of my work, I will now be offering my patterns for purchase on Etsy.
I am incredibly grateful for your support over the years. Your kind words, encouragement, and enthusiasm mean so much to me. I hope you’ll continue to enjoy my patterns and support this new chapter.
Please visit my Etsy shop HERE to view and purchase my collection.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of this journey.
