Rainbow Woollen Earflap Hat- Handmade

Description

I just got back from a freezing winter walk in the woods, heavy mist setting in, so glad I bought these cheerful hats for RainbowLife.  Colourful and cosy so not only do you keep warm, you can be easily spotted in a mist or in a crowd!

These bright and warm woolen hats feature a snuggle fleece lining around the ears and forehead for added comfort, all the warmth of wool without any of the scratchiness.

Handmade in Nepal, these are the perfect head gear for brightening up the cold months of winter. Features 3 plaited tassels, one on crown of hat for decoration, two on ear flaps for tying in windy weather and just for lovely detail.

Story

Siesta Crafts was started in 1983 by Chris and Les Harper with a market stall selling handicrafts that were brought back from their travels from Mexico and Guatemala (hence the name!).


They now import directly from suppliers in countries all over the world on a Fair Trade basis and they are proud to be a member of the British Association for Fair Trade Shops and Suppliers.


They specialise in unusual and interesting gifts. In this day and age of anodyne, cloned town high streets, it is good to see they have a vibrant, colourful presence with a wide range of unique and colourful handcrafted and fair trade items.


Their intention is that by trading with their producers they are helping them to achieve economic self-sufficiency, whilst simultaneously bringing to their customers the skills and crafts of other cultures.
