🧶 Why Use Raffia Yarn?
Raffia yarn gives projects a lightweight but structured feel. It holds its shape well without being bulky—making it a favorite for:
Tote bags and beach bags
Baskets, placemats, and table decor
Crochet trims and embellishments
🧶 Crochet Tips for Raffia Yarn:
-Use loose tension – tight stitches can make it hard to work with
-Choose a metal or smooth plastic hook to avoid snagging
-Steam shaping works well to mold and smooth the finished piece
-Not ideal for clothing or stretchy patterns—stick to structured items
-If the raffia feels too stiff, gently run it through your fingers or lightly -mist it with water to soften
