I'm still new to knitting and slow at it, so I'm sticking to scarves to make sure I can get them done over the next week, but it's really fun and relaxing* to me so I hope I improve and learn to make more complex things quicker

*it's relaxing when my cat isn't attacking the yarn lmaoo
ive known how to knit since i was 8 years old however i can only make scarves lmaooo, i never bothered looking up how to make anything else. OH ive made a baby blanket before!

Interesting, Heydi. I believe that yarn is supposed to block UV rays to a degree, but knit & crocheted items tend to have more holes that let the UV rays in than woven clothing or hats do. Additionally, you may need to be careful about what crochet pattern you use. A hat that covers more skin & has a larger brim will offer more protection than one that covers less. For example, this first crochet hat I found leaves the back of the head exposed. The second photo has huge holes that will let UV rays in. 

   




Probably best to save these for a day with a lower UV rating!

ye, I am australian :,)

but yeah i was thinking something very basic, like just rounds of half treble crochets (uk)
also while googling i just got reminded of crochet granny square hats

i dont wear this style ^^ very often, but i still do, i could add a larger brim using like a stitch with less gaps so not like that shell.

Heydi

I definitely recommend trying to! I dont know if you have any crochet experience, but granny squares are beginner friendly as they just make use of concepts you can learn in like 30 minutes max.
