This Coral and Gray Turban Style Hat is unusual and sophisticated in both color and form. It can fly 'under the radar' with its subtle style. However, upon inspection, it reveals its unusual, sculptural beauty.
COLOR:
• The colors of this felted hat are subtle and complex: a grayish taupe with hints of rose and olive green. Decorating the front, are six 'slashes' that reveal a brighter, rusty-red-orange under-layer of wool. You can wear this hat as pictured in the photos, or turn it slightly so that it is asymmetrical (as seen in the last photo).
SHAPE:
• This hat has a unique silhouette that evokes a seashell and combines several styles: that of a turban, and a retro 1930's up-do hairstyle.
SIZE:
• The hat measures 8 inches / 20 cm in height and 10 inches / 25.5 cm in width.
• It is a medium thickness felt and weighs 2.7 oz. / 77 gm.
• Headsize SMALL: fits a range of 21.5 inches / 54.5 cm to 22 inches / 56 cm.

What is Felt?
What is Felt?
Each FeltHappiness Hat is 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. To learn more, see HERE.
In addition to insulating, wool naturally resists water. Hence, your felted hat will keep you warm in chilly weather and dry in light rain. Plus, wool resists mildew, dirt, and fire!
It's magical stuff!

Care
Care
Felt is an eco-friendly, fiber that is water and stain resistant. Dust is not a problem - just give it a shake.
This hat can be gently hand-washed in cool water. Rinse. Blot dry on a towel. Place a small towel inside to shape. Always air dry hand felted wearables.

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.
