Jipijapa hats

 Jit pook cooh collective makes palm hats by hand in the Campeche state of Mexico. This small collective of Mayan women has woven hats for generations, growing the jipijapa plant in their yard then cutting the leaves finely before drying them in the sun. The dry strips are then brought to the underground cave in her yard where the natural humidity of the earth softens the fibers so that they can be woven without breaking.
