    Winter beanies hand spun.

    Perfect for the Snow and Hiking. 

    Sustainable luxury gift idea - all beanies are sent with a photo of the sheep who has grown their fleece for our pleasure.

    Some of the wool's grease has been left in the wool, which creates added warmth and water proofing. 

    The fleece is from Romney Finn sheep lovingly cared for by my sisters-in-law.

    Each beanie is unique, fleeces change, they are hand spun, only the design remains.

    This beanie has been created from my collection of wonderful vintage patterns.

    I do my best to display the colours accurately but monitors do differ.


    Sizing: This beanie is size large.

    Small - approximately 48 - 52cm / 19 - 20.5 inches
    Medium - approximately 52 - 55cm/ 19 - 21.5 inches
    Large - approximately 55 - 58cm / 21.5 - 23 inches

    Head sizes vary enormously. If you are unsure of the size please measure the circumference just above the ears and across the forehead. I am more than happy to assist if in doubt.

    Care:
    Australian Romney Finn wool beanie:

    Hand washing is EASY and much quicker than a washing machine.

    1. Prepare a tub of warm water and mix in a mild soap product or use a laundry product recommended for wool.
    2. Examine for dirty spots and wash these areas first. A gentle finger rub will remove most spots and cause no harm to the wool.
    3. Immerse the beanie and gently squeeze the suds through.

    AVOID TENSION - Do not dunk up and down in the water. Squeeze out as much water as possible.
    RINSE - In warm water, squeeze and spin dry (a lettuce spinner is great for removing excess water).
    Roll in a towel and leave to allow excess moisture to be drawn off.
    Lie flat to dry.
