This hand-knit Peruvian wool hat will keep your little one’s head warm, and their heart warm too. I use only the highest quality, ethically-sourced yarn to keep you warm and last for years to come.
–Materials–
- Hand knit with 100% Peruvian wool dyed using OEKO-TEX certified dyes (meaning they’re not harmful to humans). I use leftover yarn from knitting adult hats, so these are a no-waste item and also have a coordinating adult hat (available separately).
- Wool is very soft and warm without being scratchy.
- Wool is body odor-resistant, moisture-wicking, breathable, and biodegradable.
- Topped with a faux fur pom pom of your choice (select option at checkout). Pom poms are handmade by me using cruelty-free faux fur fabric.
- I try to capture colors as accurately as possible, but color may vary slightly from your computer screen.
–Size and Fit–
- Knit with a stretchy ribbed knit stitch, this hat stretches to accommodate sizes as your child grows. Hat can be worn as shown, or with the brim folded up on smaller heads.
- Child size typically fits ages 2-8 years, measures 7"w x 8"h (11”h with pom pom).
- Please note the video and modeled images in this listing are intended to show the style, fit, and yarn type used. They may not be the same color as the listing. You will receive the item in the color you choose.
–Care–
- Hand wash cold in gentle detergent, air dry (do not put in washer or dryer).
- Remove pom pom before washing for best results (pom pom can be removed by untying from inside).
- Fluff pom pom by gently brushing with comb or cool heat from a hair dryer.
- Woolly Bear Knits is not responsible for damage caused by accidental washing in washing machine or dryer.

Due to choking hazard of small parts for children under 3, child size hats will not include a branded suede tag or pom pom button that come with adult size hats.

I'll do my best to meet these shipping estimates, but can't guarantee them. Actual delivery time will depend on the shipping method you choose.
Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. I'm not responsible for delays due to customs.
But please contact me if you have any problems with your order.
Occasionally I can accept custom orders, depending on supply availability and capacity. Please send a message with what you're looking for and I'll respond back to let you know if it's possible. Typically I cannot accept custom orders during my busiest time in November through mid-December. If I can accept a custom request, you'll be sent a listing to purchase, and work will begin once the item has been paid for. I will provide an estimated turnaround time at the time of your order, typically 2-4 weeks.
There are no returns on custom orders, and discount codes do not apply.
- Hand wash cold in gentle detergent, reshape and air dry flat.
- Do not put in washing machine or dryer, as this will cause your wool item to felt.
- Remove pom pom before washing for best results (pom pom can be removed by untying from inside).
- Fluff pom pom to refresh by gently brushing with comb or cool heat from a hair dryer.
All wool will stretch over time. If you feel your hat has gotten too stretched out, follow the instructions above to wash it, then reshape it to desired shape, and allow to dry. This should reshape it to its original size.
Detailed measurements of each item are provided in each listing description. Hats are made with chunky merino wool or wool. Hats will be fitted on medium/larger heads with taller foreheads, or slouchy/tall on smaller/medium heads with short foreheads. If you are looking for a very small or very large size, message me and I might be able to customize the fit for you.
If you have any questions about sizing or fit, feel free to send me a message! All listings include a video of the fit on my own head (which is larger, with a tall forehead).
All wool will stretch over time. If your hat feels small (especially at the brim) when it arrives, know that it will stretch over time (after a few wears) and mold to your head shape.
Due to USPS delays in 2020-2022 along with hygiene factors related to COVID-19, returns are not accepted. Please don't hesitate to message me with any questions or concerns about your order and we'll work together to make it right.
If you have any questions about sizing, fit, or materials before your order, I'm more than happy to send you more info, pics or even a video. I typically respond to messages within an hour or two, so don't hesitate to reach out if you're unsure before you order!
Lost your pom pom or maybe your pet ate it? Or maybe you just want an additional color so you can switch it out? Send me a message to order a new one.
