...wieso Krise? Wenn ein 'Revolutionär' nichts eiliger zu tun hat als sich zum Präsidenten zu krönen, ist natürlich verdächtig. Aber es soll ja auch wohlmeinende Menschen geben.

From Wikipedia:
The Straw Hat Pirates' Jolly Roger is a flag predominantly featured in the Japanese Manga. It has become a symbol for youth-led protest movements globally e.g. August 2025 in Indonesia where people began using the flag as a form of protest against the government. The practice was emulated in other countries, eg. Nepal, France and Madagascar.

I forgot how #hats worked 🫠. I know now what I need to correct. #crochet #amigurumi #onepiece #luffy #strawhat #fediart #fiberart #fiberarts #fiberartist #yarn

I have tested this pattern for the designer already a while ago, but it has now been published. It is made with Paperyarn or Raffia. Sadly, the shape of the hat doesn't really suit little old me, I feel a bit like a Ghibli character, but not in a cute way.... Nevertheless, the pattern is wonderful.

Last hat, I promise. :D Artfully displayed on top of my fan.

A green crochet hat made with Paperyarn. It has a wide brim and a cylindrical crown, beautifully detailed with intricate crochet stitches. A bright yellow, semi-transparent chiffon scarf is tied around the base of the crown, adding a touch of elegance. The hat is photographed against a plain, light-colored door.

I told you I temporarily became a mad hatter when I discovered making my own strawhats. :D Here I used a chiffon cloth as a hatband - it's actually a juggling cloth usually used by kids to learn juggling. :-)
This hat was claimed by my aunt for gardening, and I'm glad it has a good home with her.
What is interesting here is that I used a slightly different paper yarn. Most Raffia will be broad and flat, but some are rolled and round and more yarn-like. See second picture for a direct comparison. This will in the end have an impact on your gauge and the size of your project, so it's a good thing to know.

A light green crochet hat made from paper yarn is placed on a woven surface. The hat features a wide brim with a decorative openwork pattern around the edge and a dark green chiffon cloth tied around the base of the crown, with the ends of the ribbon extending outward.

Two balls of paperyarn are displayed on a dark textured surface on the lefthand side of the picture, with the ends extending outwards toward the right side. The green paperyarn at the top has a rolled and round texture, while the blue paperyarn at the bottom is broad and flat, more like a ribbon. The image highlights the difference in how the yarn is rolled, showcasing the contrasting shapes and textures

More crochet Raffia Summerhat Goodness! This one is big, outrageous and I love it. I didn't have a matching scarf for this blue, so I adorned it with a random gift-ribbon.

The image shows a crochet hat made with dark blue Raffia Yarn. The hat has a wide brim with a pattern of open loops around the edge. A light blue ribbon is tied into a bow around the base of the crown. The hat is placed on a woven surface, possibly a wicker table.

Did you know that you can crochet your own Strawhat with Raffia? Raffia is a Paperyarn and while a hat made from it won't survive a bath, it is otherwise really quite durable. I made the hat in the picture in 2023 and it was my almost daily companion during the past two summers and will be again this summer. It can totally be squished into a bag and pulled out when needed.

The first picture with the red ribbon most definitely gives me One Piece Ruffy vibes. :D I ended up exchanging the ribbon for an old chiffon scarf (see second picture). I will share some other, colorful versions later this week. When I discovered Paperyarns in other colors, I temporarily became a mad hatter... :D

The face of the person is partly obsucred by the hat so that only the lower half of the face is visible.

The Artist

A woman artist wearing a straw hat smiles while painting her canvas outdoors in the Utah desert.

Meanwhile, the main characters are rowing their raft down the river, and the weird guy explains that there are piranhas in the water, the titular #BiteyFish. They were freed when they drained by the water.

We discover the old guy's pier, with a concerned dog by it, and we find that #StrawHat guy's feet have been eaten and they he crawled up the shore and bled to death. The Fishing Vest Guy sadly says "We'll I'll get a shovel; he wouldn't want to be buried in town." which is sad.

Mistodon: today's date marks the end of cold-weather felt hat season and the beginning of warm-weather #StrawHat season -- a changeover that led to riots in NYC way back in 1922! This #ANSIart screen by AdeptApril hopes to observe the occasion with less open conflict.

@Thenerdyverseofmadness This scene will always be in my heart. Whenever I see Nami wearing Luffy's hat (in canon, official arts, or fan arts), I'm happy.

Many fans try to dismiss the moment when Luffy gives his hat to Nami, because "other people have wear it", forgetting the meaning behind the action, in how when Nami is dubious, crying or anxious Oda uses the hat in a way to give hope to Nami.

So, it definitely made an impact, whenever she talks about Luffy, this is one moment comes to her mind, I love how she went from hating pirates, to trusting her live to a pirate. The #strawhat is like a link between #Luffy and #Nami, at least how I see it. <3
