Cotton Folding Sun Hat

And now, for a really great idea! Take it out of it's pouch and 'pop', it springs open into a 18" sun hat. Then with a simple twist it becomes a 6" disk that goes back into its matching pouch. The bag and hat are 100% cotton so they can be painted, printed & marbled. 
Also available in silk #SFSH.

Imagine the possibilities:

• For promotions
• For taking on vacations
• For keeping in your purse
• Leave one in the car
• For sale at outdoor concerts, sports events, beaches, wherever there's sun!

Please note: Collapsible rim is made of metal. Metal can rust if exposed to water for too long. Salt (as in dyebaths) can make it much worse, as can acids or alkali - like Soda Ash that is used with Dharma's fiber reactive Procion Dye, what you would normally use with cotton. Safer to paint these with thin flowable paints like Setasilk or Dynaflow, which you iron to set. These paints are so thin, you can barely tell them from dye. They are such popular hats, they are worth the effort!
