Spring Straw Hat ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Spring Straw Hat is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Vanya Silk ×1 and Silk Thread ×2 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 14 units, plus 7 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,557 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 823 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 4 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 3 Lightning Cluster, 3 Lightning Crystal and 1 Wind Cluster.

Every step is Weaver work, from a Lv 50 intermediate up to the Lv 50 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

3 of the 5 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Silkworm Cocoon (1:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Silk Thread has the widest use: 175 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
