Making a Summer Hat nodp

I bought this used hat (orange) for my granddaughter and thought about crocheting one for me out of some raffia I had on hand. I know I have all sorts of other projects to finish, but this, I could sit on the floor with the little one while she played with my crochet hooks and raffia. I really didn't even think I'd finish this, but half way through, I thought I could at least use it for a scarecrow hat for Halloween. One thing always leads to another...

From raffia to plastic bags--only because I ran out of the stuff and I wanted to finish this without having to buy anything for it. I saved all the ribbons from the gifts given to us from my daughter--I wove them in to fill some holes...






These series of pictures were taken by my granddaughter. She loved clicking away--I deleted so many, but saved these.

The hat fits us both--it looks so much better on her--it's probably hers now.
