Don’t Forget Your Crochet Sun Hat
Long sun exposure has very negative side effects, and we must protect ourselves.
Remember to use high-protection sun cream (and keep reapplying throughout the day), wear hats and sunglasses, stay in the shade, and, of course, wear a layer of clothing.
And if you are a crafter and love to make your own garments, why not crochet your hats?

The Best Yarn For Crochet Hats
The best option for a sunhat is raffia yarn.
It gives great structure to a hat that holds over time.
But if you prefer a softer hat, cotton yarn can be an excellent option.
My favorite worsted weight yarn for summer crochet hat patterns is – Pima Cotton Natural – weareknitters

What Supplies Do You Need To Crochet A Sun Hat?
To crochet a sun hat, you’ll need several essential supplies.
Begin with your choice of yarn, preferably one with sun protection qualities for summer days.
Select an appropriate size hook for the yarn weight, ensuring it matches your desired gauge.
It’s always a good idea to make a gauge swatch to make sure you have the right yarn for your project.
Other necessary tools include stitch markers to keep track of your pattern, a yarn needle for weaving in ends, scissors for trimming yarn, and cords if you’re incorporating a drawstring or tie detail.
These supplies, combined with your crochet expertise, will enable you to craft a stylish and functional sun hat perfect for sunny days outdoors.
Tips For Crocheting A Sun Hat…
Crocheting a sun hat can be a rewarding project, offering both style and functionality.
- Start by selecting a yarn with UV protection to shield you from the sun’s rays.
- Choose a stitch pattern that provides enough ventilation to keep you cool, like an open stitch or a mesh design.
- Consider adding a wide brim for extra sun protection, ensuring it’s stiff enough to hold its shape.
- Additionally, use a cotton or other breathable yarn to keep your head comfortable in warm weather.
- Pay attention to sizing, as a well-fitted hat is both flattering and comfortable.
- Finally, don’t forget to block your finished hat to shape it properly and enhance its appearance.
With these tips in mind, you’ll create a beautiful and practical sun hat to enjoy on sunny days.
