I’ve been enjoying working with black straw this spring break. Okay, maybe my eyes have been getting a bit tired. I’ve made a chapeau cloche, a brimless toque, a Mousquetaire finished in purple velvet, and a Mousquetaire that will be finished in green.
I have narrow black set aside for two doll bonnets (already claimed) Beyond that, I am going to need to order more black straw to make the other black straw pieces I have in my visual project list. (Aka my tablet’s photo files, which shamefully does not have source citations.)

Show me your favorite black straw hat or bonnet….
I would love to see more miniature doll versions of hats like the chapeau cloche and pork pie’s. Also human sized pork pie hats would be awesome too!
