Undyed Hand Knit 100% Alpaca Hat with Button, "Alpaca Inspiration"
Maria Teresa Tejada's work is inspired by the techniques of Inca-era textiles, which she says are not harmful to the environment and are more sustainable. The alpaca in this hand-knit hat is sheared, cleaned, spun and knitted by hand; no dyes are used to create the camel color seen here, therefore the tone may vary. The button in front is made of wood.

"Best hat for frigid weather"
I gave this hat to my son for Christmas. I wasnt supposed to arrive in time, according to the tracking, but it showed up 3 days before Christmas! It was so soft and beautiful, my son immediately made it his go-to hat! He lives in Philadelphia and he walks everywhere. Nice and warm!
