Create an elegant raffia sun hat with a timeless wide-brim silhouette and a refined leather belt detail. The structured crochet design gives the hat a polished look, while the reinforced brim keeps its beautiful shape. Lightweight and stylish, this handmade accessory is perfect for summer days, vacations, beach walks, and effortlessly elevated warm-weather outfits.

The pattern includes detailed step-by-step written instructions with photos and a video tutorial. It also shows you how to adjust the measurements to your own head circumference, so you can create a perfectly customized and comfortable fit.

MATERIALS:
• Raffia (I use ISPIE matte) – 2 skeins (for my hat size, I used approx. 320 m)
• Leather strap (natural leather) – 1 piece / width: 1.5–2 cm (0.6–0.8 inch), length: your head circumference + approx. 5 cm (2 inch)
• 3 plastic boning rods (regiline) – 1 m (if you plan to make wider brims, I recommend buying about 1.5 meters)
• 3 mm crochet hook
• Stitch marker, plastic yarn needle
