Brief description
‘Classic’ can be used to describe both the shape and form of a hat. We use it here, however, because hats made from fine, parasisal straw have that classic, timeless look we love to model. Nowadays, the straw ‘cones’ and capelines’ (the names given to the preformed straw shapes used to create crowns and brims) come in a wonderful range of colours, are easy to work with and create stunning hats. Learn the techniques of working with straw from this photographic, step-by-step guide and create a hat to die for! You will need wooden blocks on which to shape your hat – one for the crown and one for the brim, and some other equipment – but everything is detailed for you in the ebook from assembling what you need, to adding a clever finishing touch.  Your hat is sure to be admired (and coveted) by all who see it!
