Look at this Amanita Mushroom Captain's Cap; it looks a bit like a Super Mario hat crossed with a poisonous red mushroom. Likewise, it's also reminiscent of a Greek Fisherman's cap. Either way, it's a fun, fairytale-filled hat that will bring warmth to your head and heart.
HAT COLOR:
• Instantly recognizable, the Amanita Mushroom Captain's Cap is red and white in color.

• Similar to that of a captain's cap, the hat has a narrow bill. Decorating the top of the flat cap are several raised white spots. Very mushroom!

• It is a medium thickness of felt and weighs 3.7 oz. / 106 gm.

Materials
Materials
Merino Wool and Cotton Fabric.
Entirely handmade and created from soft Merino wool fibers using the technique of wet felting. It's an ancient and simple craft that takes patience and lots of kneading to shrink the fibers into a strong, flexible, and warm felt.
In addition to insulating, wool naturally resists water. Hence, this hat will keep you warm in chilly weather and dry in light rain. Plus, wool resists mildew, dirt, and fire! It's magical stuff!

Measuring Your Head
Measuring Your Head
Every head has its own unique size and shape, which can be measured with a flexible tape measure or even a piece of string.
Take the tape measure and encircle your head, just above the top of your ears. Make sure that the tape measure goes over that small bump at the back of your head. Please don't pull it tightly. Leave a little 'ease' so that one finger can fit under the tape. An ear-to-ear measure can be helpful too.
Measure three times: it is surprising how it can vary!
Inches or centimetres are fine.
