Striking but subtle in her tawny tones, light pink beads, paisley design and silk headband, Madge gossamer has got you covered. All she asks in return is that you wear her to the market, on your commute, into the woods, or to a dinner out. She’s game to go wherever you take her. She loves comforting you on those days your hair is being unruly, couching your locks in her ample beret-style room. She promises not to tug at you, instead warming you (but providing enough air flow so that you don’t overheat) and with her silky insides, she promises to be gentle. She even has room for glasses and won’t give you a headache in return. See, Madge is the friend you didn’t know you needed. 🙂 For a large-headed woman, meet your new BFF.

Description
The Gossamer hat is a Trish Raine-developed hat, handmade by fusing merino wool and chiffon silk in a process of wet felting (nuno felting). This hat has silk on the outside of the hat, and is lined with a different silk. A thin layer of merino wool is felted between the two layers of silk essentially “gluing” them together. This means that it will be comfortable on your head, soft on your hair and will breathe, allowing air to flow right through.
This gossamer hat is a VERY thin felt and as such does not have much structure to it, so will easily fold up in a purse. Each fold is hand-sewn into place to keep the shape of the hat.
This hat is wonderful for fall or spring, or if you have cooler summer nights. It is good in the winter, but not warm enough for very cold temperatures (but fits fabulously under a hood)! Perfect to be worn inside, and with silk as a liner, gentle on one’s scalp if experiencing hair loss.
This hat fits a very large-sized head 23.5-24.5″. If you have questions about fit, please let me know.
“I think you can be defiant and rebellious and still be strong and positive”. – Madonna (Madge).
