This beanie is hand-spun and hand-knitted by our team in Ladakh. The yarn used is our cosy sheep wool yarn Nomadic Fibers, held together for a warm and squishy feel. The beanie is knitted with sheep wool from the Changthang Plateau shorn by the nomad community. The yarns are naturally dyed with lac and undyed dark brown wool. The colors joined remind us of the warmth of autumn colors.

Please note: This product is entirely made by hand. Therefore, irregularities in thickness of yarn are characteristic to the craft of handspinning. The fabric and the dye will change over time - the wool is becoming softer and the dyes lighter. Please cold wash only with mild detergent and dry in the shade. Do not soak.
