This is an original bell hat design by mature ha., crafted from yarn spun with undyed black Merino wool in a deep brown shade, highlighting the material's natural color to achieve a dark brown tone.
The hat body uses knit felt made by fulling finely spun yarns, creating a fabric with both stretch and softness. The surface finish retains the natural fuzziness from the felting process, rather than trimming it, preserving its unique texture. Careful brushing gives the hat beautiful volume and a lightweight feel. The inside is neatly trimmed for a smooth finish, prioritizing comfort when worn.
Uses undyed black Merino wool from Victoria, Australia
The wool is hand-selected and sorted primarily by color over a period of about a year. It comes from colored sheep, typically kept for meat rather than wool, making it a unique and labor-intensive Merino wool that follows a different distribution path than conventional Merino wool.
