Summer Hat

This weeks project is a summer hat, crocheted in a raffia yarn.

The yarn was easier to work with than I expected, although it did make my hands ache so I couldn't work on it for long stretches at a time. It was also sturdier than I was expecting and I only had one breakage whilst working with it, and that was a bit that gor damaged on the zip of my bag.
The hat fits well and I am really pleased that I will be able to wear it with my hair in a ponytail. The usual problem with sun hats is that I can't wear them with my hair up so I look forward to wearing this. Now I ust need to decide if/how I am going to stiffen the brim.
