"Recently many exclusive milliners have been featuring some new hats made of treated paper... The paper, which resembles straw, is the latest favorite of Fashion -- that lover of the novel. Now, thanks to the ingenuity of expert stylists, you can actually copy the latest exclusive hats by the use of Dennison Crepe. There's no trick to it. It's very easy. All you need is a beginner's knowledge of crocheting. Easy-to-follow, step-by-step directions are given here."

"Dennison Crepe, when crocheted, resembles those beautiful fabricated straws you see in the smartest new bonnets... It wears like felt, it is light on the head, it has the pull-around qualities of a fabric but it looks like straw, and it withstands sudden summer showers like an old-timer."

Originally published in the 1930s, this vintage pattern booklet shows you how to make crocheted crepe paper hats in fifteen practical projects.
