I told you I temporarily became a mad hatter when I discovered making my own strawhats. :D Here I used a chiffon cloth as a hatband - it's actually a juggling cloth usually used by kids to learn juggling. :-)
This hat was claimed by my aunt for gardening, and I'm glad it has a good home with her.
What is interesting here is that I used a slightly different paper yarn. Most Raffia will be broad and flat, but some are rolled and round and more yarn-like. See second picture for a direct comparison. This will in the end have an impact on your gauge and the size of your project, so it's a good thing to know.

A light green crochet hat made from paper yarn is placed on a woven surface. The hat features a wide brim with a decorative openwork pattern around the edge and a dark green chiffon cloth tied around the base of the crown, with the ends of the ribbon extending outward.
Two balls of paperyarn are displayed on a dark textured surface on the lefthand side of the picture, with the ends extending outwards toward the right side. The green paperyarn at the top has a rolled and round texture, while the blue paperyarn at the bottom is broad and flat, more like a ribbon. The image highlights the difference in how the yarn is rolled, showcasing the contrasting shapes and textures

Did you know that you can crochet your own Strawhat with Raffia? Raffia is a Paperyarn and while a hat made from it won't survive a bath, it is otherwise really quite durable. I made the hat in the picture in 2023 and it was my almost daily companion during the past two summers and will be again this summer. It can totally be squished into a bag and pulled out when needed.

The first picture with the red ribbon most definitely gives me One Piece Ruffy vibes. :D I ended up exchanging the ribbon for an old chiffon scarf (see second picture). I will share some other, colorful versions later this week. When I discovered Paperyarns in other colors, I temporarily became a mad hatter... :D

A crocheted hat made with raffia yarn is shown. The hat is beige in color and features a wide brim. It is adorned with a red ribbon tied around the base of the crown. The hat is placed on a woven dark-grey surface.
A person wearing a crochet straw hat with a wide brim and a colorful orange, yellow and purple scarf wrapped around the base of the hat. The background shows a white wall and a dark-colored couch. The face of the person is partly obsucred by the hat so that only the lower half of the face is visible.
