Weaving a Hat with Rattan and Daffodil

- Daffodil season is drawing to a close which means harvesting and preserving the leaves and stalks for weaving projects! It's become a family affair to collect the leaves so that I can dry them and create cordage and basketry projects.
Join me as I gather, dry and store these leaves. I decided to incorporate the cordage in a fun new project that I'm calling my gardening hat. I was inspired by my aunt's fun sunhat, Huckleberry Finn and the fact that I intend to spend many hours enjoying the garden this year. Enjoy this relaxing weaving project as I share the steps to creating my first woven hat!
The techniques I used on this woven hat come from basket weaving techniques. What I wear as a hat could just as well be upside down and used as a basket. It's really fun realizing all the things you can make with simple techniques and creativity.

Nice. Well done.
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful hat, beautiful video. You're getting really good at this!!
Thank you so much!
Thank you Debbie!
This one sure went by fast. I would love to buy a pattern should you ever have time to make one up, or do a step by step video with particulars.
You are always inspiring. Thank you! ~ CN
Thank you. This was such a fun project. I'll think about making a pattern!
I love this hat! I really want to have a go at this now... But yet to know when I will have the time to try...... 😏
Right!? So many projects...
Could this be done with just sisal twine or palm leaves? I have a bunch left over from palm Sunday so I was wondering what I can make with that.
Sure, I encourage you to experiment. You can use my hat as an inspiration for the basic structure. I would love to see a photo when you're done! You can send it to brittany@textileindie.com or tag us on IG or FB @textileindie.
Way cool hat. Just sayin'...
Thank you! It was a lot of fun to make.
