This hand knit Merino Wool headband will always hold a special place in my heart. Named the Prickly Pear Headband because it's the first pattern I designed!! I love headbands so much because of their versatility. You'll usually find me wearing these headbands over my ball caps and trucker hats because they keep my head warm without sacrificing the sun protection I get from my hats.
Also lets be real, my hair is up in a messy bun like 98% of the time. I don't have time to change my hair up while running outside in -10 degree weather in pajamas, my sock-less feet shoved into whatever shoes were closest to the door, while the dog makes those weird up-chunk noises in the middle of the night.. I can throw this headband on without a second thought and keep my ears from freezing off while the dog looks at me like I'm a crazy person because he's already puked on the carpet, so why did we even bother coming outside...*

- Biodegradable/compostable
- This Merino wool is hand-dyed in small batches
- Gently, sustainably, nourished and harvested
More Info
It's extremely important to me that I do as much as possible to commit to sustainable ethics and community enrichment. I've worked hard to curate a collection of sustainable bespoke products & materials. I typically only work with other small business to source materials. Including local fiber artists in Colorado or fiber companies like Malabrigo, who understand the importance of leaving our communities better than before.
- Our fibers are always mulesing free and ethically harvested with animal wellfare a top priority.
- Our engraved tags are either wood, cork, or in rare cases, faux leather.
- Our faux fur poms are removable & handmade
- Our packaging is either compostable, recycled, re-usable &/or up-cycled whenever possible, without sacrificing quality or package safety.
- We only recommend biodegradable, gentle, rinse-free wool washes (such as Soak Wool Wash).
- Our other products that contain genuine leather are typically sourced by up-cycling
