Few straw fibres are employed in its initial creation, to which fibres are progressively added until a width is attained that varies between five and 10 centimetres. To weave the hat body, a mould (a block of wood) is used to gradually produce the shape to where the brim begins, which is the final element of a hat of seven to 15 centimetres.
After that comes the "remate" (tying off), which consists of doing a special interweaving to finish the weaving process. The next stage in the creation of a hat is performed by women and is known as the "azocada" (tightening), which consists of tightening the tied-off fibres to keep the weave from coming undone, followed by clipping the excess fibres. Then the hat is washed, "whitened" or dyed, and dried in the sun.
