I couldn't resist...had to see what you were all talking about. The ottocap
83-531 is a PAPER front cap, with full buckram backing. That buckram is going
to save your day-it will hold the stitching in place which would not happen on
a 'real' straw hat. As for type of needle...geez, I don't know-I would think a
sharp needle would cut through the paper 'pattern' and let edges pop out, maybe
a ball point would do less damage. Either needle type will work okay with the
buckram.
Let us know how it comes out!
