Summer Hat

[Winnie2013]

Hello all Happy Saturday and Memorial Day weekend! Would any one have an easy pattern for a hat suitable for gardening? Not floppy cause I think that would bother me it will mostly be for shade! What would be the best yarn for not being too hot? Is there "straw" yarn? Sorry about so many ?? But I have no clue about making a sun hat and have looked on different sites already! I would love a quick and easy one! I know I'm asking for a lot!! Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Hugs Winnie

Winnie: I'm trying to catch up with this newsletter (been ill last 2 days). Recently (5/19) bonnie143 posted some cute hats that I hope to make soon. See if that's what you're looking for.

I found that there are several really nice brimmed hats on Etsy. You may also want to use millinery wire for the brim. I purchased a hat pattern and some of the materials from https://img0.etsystatic.com/020/0/73...15302_fewt.jpg. You can use raffia to create a straw style hat.
