This hat is an elevated Trish Raine “starter” hat.  Yes, it is comfortable, sculptural and sensible, but the combination of silks creates a textured look in the silk fabric pattern!  This is a “kitchen sink”, where I put various silk fabrics together in one hat which creates a vibrant turquoise, cohesive one-of-a-kind look.

Wear it across your ears to get a jaunty look, or in bad weather, pull the hat down to protect you from the cold and snow.  There is a lot of room to tuck your ponytail into the hat, which helps secure it to your head and stops a great deal of “hat head”.  Heck wear this formally or out snowshoeing!!  It can also protect you on all your winter physical activities!  🙂

Description

This hat is handmade felt.  The silk fabric is from thrifted silk fashion and is fused with raw merino wool in a process of wet felting (nuno felting).  Once the fabric/felt hood is created, it is blocked over a vintage heated block and shaped by hand. This cloche is warm, and perfect for keeping the weather off your hair while covering your ears in cold weather.  There is plenty of room in the hat to house your hair and can even be folded up and tucked into a purse if you need to remove it while inside.

This hat fits a larger-sized head, 22.75-23.75″ in circumference.  If you have any questions about size, please contact me.
