This hat was designed with raffia. If you’re going to substitute find a comparable tape style worsted weight yarn. I would recommend Rewind and Replay by Lionbrand.

Must have knowledge of ch, hdc, sc, waistcoat, increasing, and working in the round. This hat is constructed from the top down in continuous rounds, starting with a magic ring. Magic ring and Waistcoat stitch tutorials linked in material with complete supply list.
