New this year is our alpaca kids collection. This adorable hat is sumptuously soft. Handmade by women in a fair trade cooperative in Peru, it is made of 100% baby alpaca - one of the world's most luxurious fibers. This hat can be worn with the cuff up or down for varying sizes and looks.
Considered by many a higher quality material than cashmere, alpaca is one of the world’s most valuable natural fibers. Just ask any Incan Emperor why only the royal families were allowed to wear it! It is luxuriously soft (not at all itchy!), hypoallergenic, breathable, warm, lightweight and durable. Best of all, it is a natural, eco-friendly fiber and the artisans are paid fair wages.
100% Baby Alpaca
Should fit most kids between 4-9 years old.
Makes a fabulous set with our Baby Alpaca Kid's Mittens - Purple, Peru.
